MethodologyThe main question of this book – whether sudden moves and expansions of Korean VMs in Europe have been influenced by European economic integration – is likely to be answered by carrying out the following tasks: (i) analysing motivations and transformations of trade and FDI,(ii) examining industrial locations in the search for the geographical implications of European integration and (iii) reviewing corporate strat- egies in Europe. Firstly, the motivations and transformations of trade and FDI could provide insight into the importance of European markets and mechanism affecting international activities of non-European companies. Secondly, the industrial location of Korean VMs may be considered to be a practical case reflecting the effects of economic integration on the geographical diversion and concentration of industrial activities. Thirdly, corporate strategies in Europe in terms of R&D, service and marketing networks, and components supply system will directly show the effects of economic integration and strategic response within the European context.
