WARNING: This course is no longer offered by Langara. Information provided here is solely for historical purposes.

Discontinued Fall Semester 2009; replaced by INTB 2000 This is a survey course of the international business environment. It looks at what International Business is and means; what globalization means; and why International Business is important to the Canadian economy. It provides students with a focus on the nature of the international business environment, its financial, cultural, social, political and legal forces, and the manner in which this environment has changed and continues to change. It also provides students with an introduction to alternative methods of conducting business internationally. The reasons for and types of government and private sources of assistance to international business will be explored. The increasing importance of international organizations such as the World Bank, the International Development Association, the World Trade Organization, UNCTAD, and the International Monetary Fund is stressed. These organizations provide information and funds to help companies which are planning to enter the global economy. Another aim of this course is to provide a basic understanding of trade flows and the main trade agreements. The major trade groups and regions to be examined include the European Union, APEC and ASEAN, NAFTA and MERCOSUR. Discontinued Fall Semester 2009; replaced by INTB 2000
