本文研究了日本制造企业的全球化企业活动模式及其国内业务和国际贸易。更具体地说，我们比较了两个对比时期（1998-2002 年和 2002-2006 年）在东亚扩大业务的公司与未扩大业务的公司在国内业务和国际贸易方面的变化。此外，我们还结合前一时期的全球化行为信息对后一时期进行了分析，并根据文献仅针对非跨国企业或跨国企业进行了分析。我们的研究表明，在东亚扩大业务的日本制造企业更有可能通过有效利用东亚的生产过程分工机制，增加国内就业和国内子公司和机构的数量，并加强与该地区的进出口活动，特别是在后期。
This paper investigates the pattern of globalizing corporate activities of Japanese manufacturing firms and their domestic operations and international trade. More specifically, we compare changes in domestic operations and international trade of firms expanding operations in East Asia with those of firms not expanding operations in two contrastive periods, 1998–2002 and 2002–2006. In addition, we conduct analyses incorporating the information on the globalizing behavior in the former period for the latter period and analyses focusing only on non-MNEs or MNEs in line with the literature. Our study demonstrates that Japanese manufacturing firms with expanding operations in East Asia are more likely to increase domestic employment and the number of domestic affiliates and establishments as well as to intensify export/import activities with the region, particularly in the latter period, by effectively utilizing the mechanics of production process-wise division of labor in East Asia.
