Many organizations are requiring upper level executives to have international experience before they are offered higher level executive positions. To effectively compete on a global scale, firms must make optimal use of their technical expertise and staff their operations with managers who have a global mindset. These managers must identify with the organizations global objectives and strategies and are able to develop collaborative transnational networks. With the expansion of global trade and the need to have managers in newly industrialized nations such as China or Russia the number of Americans working abroad (expatriates) has expanded from 80,000 in 1989 to 113,000 in 1992. In 2000 there are over 3 million Americans living or working abroad. Other countries have had similar increases in the growing numbers of expatriates. Expatriate turnover is affected by job satisfaction and organizational commitment. Job satisfaction is a result of the degree of fit between the employee and the organizational environment. Adjustment to living and working in a foreign culture is the biggest problem for most expatriates. If the expatriate does not fit into the culture then the adjustment will not easily be made and the employee will tend to withdraw from the assignment and possibly the company. This not only costs money, but also time to train the expatriate and train the replacement. Depending on industry the failure rate of expatriates is as high as 40%. Firms continue to use expatriates to facilitate entry into new markets, to develop international management competencies and for control and expertise.

Expatriates have been fundamental to China's economic growth, contributing to the country's socioeconomic development and modernization. The second-largest group of expatriates in China are North Americans. Personal income taxation concessions for expatriate workers have been an important instrument to attract and retain skilled foreign labour since China opened its doors to foreign investment and an income tax was adopted four decades ago. A recent overhaul of the law on individual income tax introduced a number of changes to expatriate income taxation, including the winding back of some preferential concessions previously offered only to expatriates. A literal reading of these changes suggests that the new regime has led to harsher tax treatment of expatriates and increased their tax liability. This article considers whether this view holds up, by closely analyzing the new system's major features relating to individual income tax as they affect expatriates. The authors challenge the literal reading of the law and argue that the recent changes have not fundamentally altered the underlying policy on expatriate income taxation. Further, an economically stronger China has not observed any diminishment of the role of personal income taxation as an instrument of government policy, despite the recent changes. A generous interpretation of the legal terms and rules, and of the application of concessions under the amended system, may encourage more lenient treatment of Canadians and other expatriates working and living in China.

The number of Americans and Canadians choosing to live outside of their home countries after retirement is increasing rapidly, with Mexico as the primary destination for emigration. The majority of these expatriates are white. This study explores how race affects the experiences of emigration and expatriation for these retirees. In-depth interviews with 30 white expatriate retirees living in Mazatlán, Mexico, reveal that white expatriates respond to a growing sense of racial victimization and nostalgia by framing their emigration as a chance to reclaim their superior and racialized social standing. Specifically, white expatriates use three strategies to explain how race affected their experiences in Mexico: escaping, wherein they come to Mexico to avoid the racial diversification of their home countries; evoking, in which they position Mexico as a place to recoup old-fashioned values; and reclaiming, wherein Mexico is perceived as a chance to regain their whiteness as standing.

Researchers have heavily debated the definition and role of trust in human behavior over the past few decades. As robots begin to be used more often, particularly in international military applications, understanding human-robot trust becomes increasingly important. The current study aims to investigate trust differences in robotic peacekeepers between Americans living in the United States, China, and Japan using a simulated environment. We predicted that trust in robots would differ as a function of culture. Results showed that Americans residing in Japan were significantly more trusting than Americans in the United States or China overall. Further, Americans living in America trusted robotic peacekeepers significantly more than Americans residing in China. This suggests that people who adopt a certain trust framework are those who have chosen to live abroad, but more research is needed to understand the differences between resident and expatriate Americans.

This article explores KGEI, an American shortwave station established in 1939 to broadcast American programming to American listeners in East Asia. At its founding,KGEI (initially called W6XBE) captured widespread enthusiasm about radio's believed ability to promote beneficial cross-cultural and economic exchanges across international borders. In practice, however, KGEI did little to further that idealistic vision. Listener reaction to this station's entertainment and news programming indicates that it became a vehicle for Americans abroad to strengthen their connections to their distant homeland and solidify their expatriate identities as American citizens. As war approached, KGEI discouraged the very international exchange it was thought to promote. KGEI's story remains pertinent today as Americans continue to debate the promises and perils of growing global entertainment and news networks.

This essay examines the language of an expatriate community as found in letters and petitions written by African Americans who migrated to Sierra Leone by way of Nova Scotia in 1792. These documents provide some of the earliest first-hand evidence of African American English and contribute to debates about the history of that variety. The paper compares selected grammatical features in that variety to modern-day African Nova Scotian English for insights to the history of African American English and develops a case for the principled use of manuscript documents for reconstructing earlier stages of colloquial English.

The purpose of this research paper is to share and uncover the differences between American and Chinese culture and customs. These revelations illustrate the culture and customs of various Chinese provinces and how they differ from those of the United States. Moreover, an analysis of etiquettes, business practices, the concept of face, and teaching experiences are provided. In conclusion, this paper will touch upon the experiences of an expatriate while teaching at a renowned Chinese university. The viewpoints are based on experiences and observations only and, in no way, reflect the nature and culture of China as a whole. The findings of this paper will also help Americans, either traveling or teaching overseas, to prepare themselves, and will enable the reader to form his or her own perception and draw conclusions from an individual perspective.

Covering about three million square kilometres, the Arabian Peninsula is mainly a diverse landscape of hot humid sandy coasts, arid desert, sparse scrubland, stone-strewn plains, and lush oases, as well as rocky and sometimes fertile mountain highlands and valleys. In addition to the indigenous local populace, the population is composed of large groups of expatriate Arabs and Asians, in addition to smaller groups of Europeans and North Americans; these expatriate groups represent a major workforce community of skilled professionals and semi-skilled or unskilled labourers from over sixty countries. The region's contemporary economy, dominated by the production of oil and natural gas has created unprecedented wealth, which in turn has led to a momentous surge in intensive infrastructural development and the construction of new environments (Wiedmann, 2012). The ensuing impact of this fast track development on the built environment, in conjunction with the continuous and seemingly frantic quest for establishing unique urban identities (Salama, 2012), is seen as a trigger for introducing this special edition of Open House International.

During the years of Japan's “bubble” economy, writers and artists in the United States became increasingly susceptible to “Japan-bashing,” a discourse that objectified Japanese for their trade practices, overseas purchases, and tourist presence. In the following article, I draw upon a range of cultural texts, from Truman Capote's novellaBreakfast at Tiffany'sto Michael Crichton's novelRising Sun, in order to investigate how the trope of the camera-toting Japanese expatriate encapsulated the fears of the era. I then move to explore the ways in which Japanese Americans negotiated these tropes in their writings, paying particular attention to Ruth Ozeki's novelMy Year of Meats. I hypothesize that Japanese Americans remained aware of the phenomenon of “Japan-bashing” throughout the era, yet did not confront it in a sustained fashion. Instead, tropes were either dismissed out of hand or, as in Ozeki's case, incorporated into a narrative before undergoing a process of gradual dismantlement.

This study examined the use of technology-based training and development within expatriate populations after the 2008 global recession. A quantitative survey design was used to collect data. The study results were shared with a live, face-to-face group forum of training and development practitioners. A total of 46 participants answered the survey. Findings related to participant demographic data as well as their perceptions regarding the impacts of the 2008 recession, training timing and topics, and training methods were reported. The study findings indicated that the 2008 global recession did not have a strong impact on these participants. They also tended to receive training after they arrived onsite. Technology-based training was not viewed as highly effective by expatriates. Rather, it is traditional instructor-led classroom training that best prepared American expatriates for their work assignment abroad, second to blended learning of classroom and technology training.

International assignment experiences assist personnel over time by helping them acquire new business skill sets, global perspectives, and essential intermediate- and advanced-level cross-cultural competencies, which collectively benefit all stakeholders. The purpose of this study was to explore the impact of organizational culture, compensation practices, and job designations during the American expatriate’s career process to maximize retention rates within the Saudi nonacademic local-clientele training sector. The cultural dimensions theory, the model for expatriate selection, and the model for expatriate training framed this study. A qualitative multiple-case research methodology featured a 10-question survey and a 10-question interview with 15 American expatriates representing 11 Saudi organizations. Themes were developed for each research question. Findings for less experienced expatriates showed more career development opportunities and leadership from experienced section managers were needed. Findings for more experienced expatriates showed more active employment policy adaptations were needed. The findings of this study suggested retention is impacted significantly when American expatriates are valued, encouraged to grow career prospects, and inspired to recruit additional personnel to accept foreign mission assignments. A ten-phase career process (TPCP) was developed to identify the exact phase expatriates considered departure. The results of this research will assist organizational decision makers and support level personnel in understanding the most urgent requirements and provide insight into techniques to properly support expatriates most efficiently and cost-effectively.

This chapter demonstrates how Mexican Americans conceptualized U.S. national citizenship through a transnational lens, specifically through political developments in the Mexican Revolution. It examines México de afuera, a well known expatriate phenomenon, but by focusing on its impact on Mexican American manhood, this chapter shows how the ideology developed into “expatriate citizenship,” a way of deliberating the nation’s place as an emergent global superpower and on the contradictions posed between exported democracy and domestic citizenship. This chapter offers an extended reading of Josefina Niggli’s overlooked 1947 novel Step Down, Elder Brother as expatriate citizenship.

Expatriates of U.S.-based multi-national companies (MNCs) on overseas assignments face unique adjustment and job-performance issues that have affected employer operations, resulting in economic and financial loss, and low morale. The poor adjustment of Americans in Russia is generally due to the type of job, type of position, and prior-international experience. This chapter addresses how expatriate adjustments and job-performances remain pivotal elements for success or failure in overseas assignments.

Abstract African American cultural history includes within it an extensive expatriate tradition. Scholars often foreground the stories of famous African American writers, such as James Baldwin, Richard Wright, and Chester Himes, who left America behind to seek out new homes abroad for themselves and their work and who produced work with themes and stories that frequently reflected their expatriate status. While these writers are deservedly prominent both for their literary merit and for the influence their lives and careers have had on African American and other cultures, their status as representatives of the African American expatriate tradition is misleading. Their common gender and association with a single genre create an image of the African American expatriate writer as being male and a novelist.3 Furthermore, the fact that these writers’ identities as African American expatriates were secured during the 1950s and l 960s leads some scholars to suggest that the African American expatriate tradition died when they did.4 Perhaps most significant, these histories frame literal, physical migration as the only means of movement and repositioning embraced by African American artists.

Abstract This chapter considers expatriate Italians in America during the War and also their relationship with family members who remained in Italy during the War. It is often recognized that life on the “home front” for most Americans disrupted ordinary patterns of living, often required separation from loved ones who had gone to fight, entailed adjustment to new domestic and work arrangements, and frequently involved relocation to new jobs in war-related industries. It is less frequently acknowledged that thousands of refugees from Europe already had been subjected to worse upheaval—occasioned by their forced departure and resettlement in the United States. For such families, America’s entry into the War magnified existing difficulties and increased hostility against them, notwithstanding their opposition to Fascism and their gratitude for refuge. War also left Guido and his family—and so many others—understandably concerned about the well-being of the friends and relatives they left behind.

Chapter 4 considers how the US lecture tour provided the expatriate author Gertrude Stein with a chance to reacquaint herself with her native country. The media blitz that accompanied Stein’s 1934–5 tour—she made regular stops for photo ops, book signings, and radio interviews—has prompted critics to examine the way Americans saw Stein as a 1930s celebrity. This chapter is more interested, though, in the way Stein saw America, examining in particular her role as a social documentarian during one of the lowest points in the Great Depression. It specifically analyzes the way she developed a public lecturing practice invested as much in documenting her audiences as it was in speaking to them. It then goes on to compare her lecture-tour memoir, Everybody’s Autobiography, to the state and regional guidebooks being produced at that time by the New Deal’s Work Progress Administration (WPA) to reveal how these two forms of 1930s documentary come together in their renewed belief in the American collective. Finally, the many points of overlap between Stein’s memoir and WPA documentaries become an occasion to question previous readings of the author’s late 1930s politics, which have typically portrayed Stein as a stalwart social conservative.

Geographical and racial differences in the incidence of thrcmbo-embolisn could be related to basic dissimilaritiesin the haemostatic system in different ethnic groups. However reliable comparative population studies in haemostatic parameters is lacking. The large expatriate ccmnunity in Saudi Arabia offers such a chance.Subjects tested were all healthy blood donors (aged 20-50 years) and were classified on the basis of ethnic origininto three categories (1) Arabs n=750, (2) Westerns (Americans and Europeans) n=400, and (3) S.E. Asians (Filipinos) n=570. The measurements done included PT, PTT, TT, Reptilase time, Plasma fibrinogen, AT III, Plasminogen, F.VIII:C, FX, α-2 Antiplasmin and Platelet aggregation in response to ADP (20.0, 2.0, 1.0, 0.5 & 0.25 uM), Collagen, Arachidonic acid, Adrenaline and Ristocetin (1.5, 1.2 & 1.0 mg/ml).There were no significant ethnic differences in the measured plasmatic clotting tests. This contrasts the finding of many smaller studies. Besides no significant ethnic differences were noted in platelet aggregation response to high doses of ADP (20 uM) or Ristocetin (1.5 mg/ml) and to Collagen. However, 45% of the S.E. Asians displayed abnormally inhibited responses to Adrenaline when compared to Arabs (34%) and Westerns (35.2%). Asians also displayed more inhibited responses to lower doses of ADP (2.0 & 1.0 uM) . On the other hand, S.E. Asians showed the lowest incidence of inhibited Arachidonic acid responses (9%) when compared to Arabs (24%) and Westerns (26%) . Similar racial differences were noted in response to low doses of Ristocetin (1.2 & 1.0 mg%) where Arabs and Asians showed high incidence of abnormally reduced responses (26-28%) when compared to Westerns (15%). No evidence of enhanced aggregation could be detected in Westerns.
