This paper draws on the theory of cooperation that incorporates the concepts of substitutability (substitution of goals), cathexis (commitment to a specific goal), and inducibility (open to influence) to describe the emerging interactive relationship between MNEs and OTEs. Due to changing global competitive trends, we propose that MNEs, OTEs, and transition economy governments act in their best interests through a continuum of cooperation and confrontation. We propose that the two theories of cooperation and confrontation are not paradoxical but are in effect complementary.}, keywords = {Management, Strategy \& Entrepreneurship}, author = {Danskin,P. and Dibrell,Clay and Kedia,B.
