摘要

The Comments follow the evolution of International Business (IB) at Harvard Business School (HBS) after the IB Area was disbanded in 1973. Several IB faculty were relocated to a course on the economic and political environment of business. HBS dropped its doctoral program in IB and it did not seek holders of such doctorates from elsewhere. Deans championed internationalization of the School, encouraging faculty to spend time abroad, providing funds for overseas research, and establishing “centers” abroad. Many new faculty were foreign-born and foreign-educated. Internationalization at HBS shifted from a focus on specifically IB content to a broader concept of “globalization.”
