Abstract
It seemed a routine business deal, though surely a large
one by any standard: P&O Group of Britain (including P&O’s assets in the United
States) was being acquired by Dubai Ports World, the fast-growing Dubai port operator,
for $6.8 billion. Overnight, the transaction became Topic A in the U.S. Congress
and Fox News. Dubai, the Persian Gulf destination probably best known in America
as Michael Jackson’s next stop after Neverland, was front-page news.
