In this introduction to our Special Issue, we will first seek to discuss the extent to which recent expatriation research and literature is still subject to earlier criticisms. Second, we will discuss the future research needs concerning the theme of this Special Issue, international careers, briefly reviewing the dominating research theme within the international career context (i.e. the career impacts of international assignment) and suggesting some future research areas. After that, we will offer a particularly promising new avenue for future research: the new forms of international work. We will conclude by summarizing the articles for this Special Issue and illustrate how they fit within this new avenue.Article type: Research paperISSN: 1096-4762Reference: 39BB816
