Strategic International Management

Abstract

Differentiated networks consist of heterogeneous organisational units in different countries. Different subsidiaries can play different roles within the MNC network and numerous classifications of generic subsidiary strategies or roles are proposed to clarify those strategies. The aim of this Chapter is to give an overview on existing role typologies and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the role typologies for international management.
