摘要：Multinational enterprises – as key determinants and results (in the same time) of theglobalization process that characterize the economic world nowadays – know a lot of differentapproaches in the academic literature; this is a consequence of the refinement (in time) of the(firm’s) internationalization strategies and practices – which is determined, at its turn, by thecontinuous dynamics and challenges of the world economy.By this paper we would like to bring into attention two of these general theoreticalframeworks; they were developed by Wladimir Andreff (into his 2003 book: Les multinationalsglobales), and Mats Forsgren respectively (into his 2008 book: Theories of the MultinationalFirm). The main idea is to capture the essence of the theories of the multinationals on one hand(no matter if they claim their roots to be into the international business, theory of the firm orinternational management academic field), and to discover the particularities that each one ofthe theories and approaches emphasize, on the other hand.
