Abstract

Although corporate expatriation, especially involving multinational firms, has been receiving the main focus of attention in the academy, this chapter seeks to complement this narrow perspective embracing the analysis of complementary approaches involving migration, assigned expatriates, self-initiated expatriates, lifestyle expatriates, and expat-preneurs. For that a literature review was carried out taking into account those different approaches to expatriation. Clearly, this chapter embraces the explanation of those five main approaches that complement the classical view of migration and expatriation through multinational companies.
