Mr. Sinangil and Mr. Ones are nice guys - they do all the work for me. In a book with the scary title "Industrial, Work, and Organizational Psychology" they contributed a chapter on expatriate management. Yes! It reviews the past 5 decades of research done in the field of expatriates. Yesyesyes! How could I not love these guys?
Unfortunately, I lack some brain cells - it took me 4 full days to get through 10 pages. I'm very happy they didn't write a full book: thesis time would be up before I'd been done with anything...
Anyway: content! As usual you find links to the summaries, while at the same time I will publish the most important part on the front page as well.
