Abstract

Our study explores how multinational corporations (MNCs) learn to contract in a new country. Through in-depth study of a French MNC and its boilerplates, we posit that MNCs use problem-solving approach to adapt their contracting capabilities to a new country and simultaneously continue to contract traditionally in their own country.
