Biography
Grazia Ietto-Gillies
'Ietto-Gillies's publication represents an interesting and compelling treatment of the dominant role of transnational companies (TNC's) in the globisation process and the configuration of a new world division of labour ... One of the most appealing aspects of Ietto Gillies's book is that she is ambitious in effectively intergrating both economic, institutional and political theories from a broad set of what have often been largely disparate literatures to conceptualise her analysis of TNC's.' - Global Business and Economics Review
'This remarkable book represents an essential, detailed and highly readable contribution to the study of transnational corporations (TNCs) and globalization processes.' - Simona Iammarino, Transnational Corporations
