This thesis deals with SunTzu’s Art of the War in the international business and management. It seems that the war and international management are different from each other. However, there are similarities between them, especially in using strategies. Historically, from China's warring states period to Japanese modern times, there have been several successful cases applying SunTzu's strategies to production management. In 'the Art of War', SunTzu put much emphasis on the strategies through the whole series, and for success, he also insists an guaranteed system be prepared to win the opponent. For example, in Clausewitz’s Vom Kriege, which is described the theory of war, he claims that only war strategies should be considered except all other factors. On the other hand, SunTzu indicates that every influential element should be taken into consideration to dominate the enemy. In addition, unlike Clausewitz who argues that the whole army force be deployed into the battle field to attack the opponent’s major force, SunTzu maintains that the key point is not more troops, but artful practices to attack the enemy's weakness. Moreover, from the perspective of affinities and historical cases, a lot of tactics in 'the Art of War' seem to be applicable to international business and management. From the work, the meaning of the oriental ideas may be derived in a modern viewpoint by combining with contemporary management theories and being reinterpreted in the modern context. Based on Porter's competition theory and precedent studies, this thesis suggests that there are several aspects of SunTzu's strategies that are very applicable to the international business area. There are two parts—the establishment and the performance of strategies—which cam be applied to and explained within the examples of international business administration. Until now, there have not been many specific researches on international business management adapting 'the Art of War'. However, it seems that the SunTzu's strategies can be linked to the international management; now the studies on tapping into the strategies in global marketing are increasing. Although it has passed about 2,500 years since 'the Art of War' was written, the ideas from it still can be suitable for a contemporary society. This implies the book is just not a description of military strategies, but beyond that it is still useful for the modern society. Strategies are the most important factor to be taken into account in the expansion into the global market. Nevertheless, it should also be considered that the SunTzu's tactics are not necessarily a panacea. Readers should keep in mind that they need to employ the most appropriate tactic, which fits into their management policies and business situations. This thesis hopes to be helpful for those who are stuck in the strategic traps of the poor marketing conditions and be a new paradigm based on Eastern strategic thoughts and Western business systems.
