Schlagwörter: 0502 economics and business, 05 social sciences, 8. Economic growth, Nonlinear Internationalization, de-internationalization, Internationalization strategies, re-internationalization, case study, internationalization
Beschreibung: This article aims to contribute to the international and East-West business literature by discussing the nature of nonlinear internationalization based on a case study of an Italian firm, Meccanica Valle Metauro S.r.l., that had activities in Central and Eastern Europe and other countries and by identifying causes of nonlinearities. The study concludes that nonlinear internationalization may be caused by different internal and external factors and actors; that it can occur once or several times; that foreign market exit may be temporary (followed by re-entry) and permanent; and that de-internationalization does not always mean a failure for the firm.
