It provides an actor-centered perspective and develops the framework called 'Conflating Capitalisms' that allows for a better understanding of both MNC-induced institutional change in the host country and the subsequent impact on local development. The book uses the empirical case of Western MNCs in Latin America. It applies a sequential mixed-method design, including a large-scale elite survey on corporate behavior and in-depth, semi-structured interviews with local decision-makers on the institutionalization of German dual vocational training (DVT) in Brazil. The book presents strong evidence for both behavioral contradiction in the host country - with MNCs showing alien-to-the-system behavior - and subsequent actor-induced institutional change, with varied developmental impact. Additionally, the book offers novel insights into MNCs' handling of missing complementary institutions and the institutionalization process of coordinated practices in Latin America. This book appeals to scholars, students, and practitioners who are interested in advancing the field of development and MNCs. 001446986 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed May 25, 2022). 001446986 650_0 $$aInternational business enterprises$$zLatin America. 001446986 650_0 $$aEconomic development$$xSocial aspects$$zLatin America. 001446986 651_0 $$aLatin America$$xEconomic conditions$$y1982- 001446986 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001446986 830_0 $$aContributions to economics.$$x2197-7178 001446986 852__ $$bebk 001446986 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-93805-5$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001446986 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1446986$$pGLOBAL_SET 001446986 980__ $$aBIB 001446986 980__ $$aEBOOK 001446986 982__ $$aEbook 001446986 983__ $$aOnline 001446986 994__ $$a92$$bISE
