⊙ The book explores the three major forms of international business: international trade, intellectual property licensing, and foreign direct investment. It covers both traditional commercial law topics (such as product sales, commercial documents, corporate law, agency law, etc.) and emphasizes the in-depth explanation of international trade law, international conventions and agreements, as well as trade controls in all aspects of international business. It emphasizes private law to promote more effective management decision-making.
· With China's entry into the WTO, economic globalization is changing and will thoroughly transform traditional perceptions of resources, markets, and competition. Striving to leverage comparative advantages and actively cultivating dynamic comparative advantages has become a conscious behavior for many countries, regions, and enterprises. While studying the relevant documents and rules of the WTO is important, systematically and comprehensively understanding the knowledge and operational skills of international business, the "International Business Law" course may serve as a necessary foundation. As a translated textbook on international business law, this book fills many gaps in many aspects.
