SUBNATIONAL IB POLICY IN AN AGE OF REGIONAL TRADE INTEGRATION

Abstract

This paper explains, illustrates, and defends the importance of an international business (IB) policy for any government jurisdiction affected by international regionalization and globalization that is lacking in direct control of traditional international trade and investment policies. It describes efforts in Indiana that comprise much of the state’s IB policies, explains the basic foundation or rationale for such policies, defends the general case for subnational IB policy, uses Indiana as a case study of the need for such policies, and presents conclusions and recommendations for subnational policy.
