Überfällige Rechnungen, mangelhafte Ware, Diebstahl geistigen Eigentums - Unternehmer müssen auf opportunistisches Verhalten ihrer Geschäftspartner vorbereitet sein. Dieses Buch definiert die Merkmale von Opportunismus, benennt dessen unterschiedliche Spielarten und analysiert die Rahmenbedingungen, die ein solches Verhalten hemmen bzw. fördern können. Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse basieren - neben einer detaillierten Diskussion der einschlägigen Literatur - auf einer umfangreichen empirischen Studie mit persönlichen Interviews deutscher, US-amerikanischer und mexikanischer Unternehmer sowie einer standardisierten telefonischen Befragung deutscher Exportunternehmen.

We develop a simple model of the choice between exploiting a technology in another country via export and via direct foreign investment. The model points to the destination country's size, level of technological sophistication, and distance from the source as factors in the decision. Moreover, it suggests that the effects of these variables may not only be nonhomogeneous but nonmonotonic as well. We use the model as a basis for estimating Japanese and U.S. exports and DFI positions around the world. Consistent with the theory we find that the importance of DFI relative to exports grows with population, although, contrary to our theory, the elasticity of DFI, as well as exports, with respect to population is less than one. We find that distance tends to inhibit DFI much less than it inhibits exports, as our theory predicts. We find some tendency for Japanese exports to rise relative to DFI as countries become more advanced with U.S. exports and DFI exhibiting the opposite tendency. Taking population, per capita income, factor endowments, and distance into account, we find Japan to be more open to U.S. exports than any region in the world except East Asia.

Southeast Asia has often been seen as economically static and self-sufficient until the arrival of late 19th century capitalism, for no better reason than lack of evidence to the contrary. This volume seeks to lay a basis for more solid analysis of the precolonial record through accumulating one type of data (exports) for which the record is long and continuous. By compiling data series for each of the Southeast Asian products which dominated long-term exports (cloves, pepper, coffee and sugar), it reveals a dynamic pattern of rises and falls in the economic record of a region. Co-published with ISEAS.
