This chapter introduces the content of the book State-owned multinationals: Governments in Global Business. The book provides a deep understanding of state-owned multinationals and their role in global business.

This prestigious collection of articles presents insights into the interaction between government ownership and internationalization, and aims to provoke new research approaches and insights on the topic. The book includes some of the key contributions to our understanding of these firms and provides new commentaries giving detailed explanations on how to analyze state-owned multinationals, with guidance for future studies.
