Divestiture? I hardly know ‘er!
In this episode, we explore the phenomenon of Western corporations publicly withdrawing from countries with human rights violations. Do companies like Starbucks and McDonald's actually forego profits, or are their actions merely PR stunts? And if they do withdraw, does it have any real impact on the target country (e.g., Mother Russia)? We talk with global economics experts and recruit a secret Russian source to get to the bottom of it.
