摘要：In the January 2020 Academy of Management Review, associate editors Wang, Gibson, and Zander (hereafter WGZ) posed this question: Is research on corporate social responsibility undertheorized? They answered affirmatively, pointing to the field's initial practice orientation and arguing a subsequent lack of theoretical foundation and coherence sufficient to inform practice. We disagree with WGZ on key points concerning the corporate social responsibility (CSR) field. We argue that the field is ...

摘要：Scholars have long debated how rigor can be achieved in qualitative analysis. To answer this question, we need to better understand how theory is generated from data. Qualitative analysis is, at its core, a categorization process. Nevertheless, despite a surge of interest in categorization within the social sciences, insights from categorization theory have not yet been applied to our understanding of qualitative analysis. Drawing from categorization theory, we argue that the movement from dat...

摘要：The notion that transparency forces organizations to eschew decoupling and embrace substantive adoption represents an important assumption in the corporate social responsibility (CSR) literature. Conversely, research on learning and social control has considered opacity-understood as a lack of transparency-to be conducive to substantive CSR adoption. These opposing viewpoints highlight a fundamental tension: Is transparency good or bad for substantive adoption? This paper resolves this tension...

摘要：Building on property rights theory, we explore the relationship among property rights, owner-management, and value creation in private firms. We suggest that property rights in the hands of owner-managers create strategic, incentive, and commitment benefits that facilitate value creation. However, the self-incentivizing nature of property rights engenders three control hazards-those related to reliability, egocentrism, and succession-that threaten stakeholder welfare. In order to mitigate thes...

摘要：This review essay proposes an examination of recent management research contributions to the debate of the role of corporations in capitalist economies, focusing on (but not limited to) the recent books by Paul Adler (2019), Rebecca Henderson (2020), Sarah Kaplan (2019), and Subramanian Rangan (2018). These works identify common criticisms of capitalist systems related to an excessive corporate emphasis on economic value (i.e., shareholder primacy), their neglect of societal externalities, and...

摘要：Some of the world's most profitable firms own platforms that exhibit network effects. A platform exhibits network effects if, the more that people use it, the more valuable it becomes to each user. Theorizing about the value perceived by users of a platform that exhibits network effects has traditionally focused on direct and indirect network effects. In this paper, we theorize about a new category of network effects-data network effects that has emerged from advances in artificial intelligenc...

摘要：Organizations are increasingly deploying technologies that have the ability to parse through large amounts of data, acquire skills and knowledge, and operate autonomously. These technologies diverge from prior technologies in their capacity to exercise intentionality over protocol development or action selection in the practice of organizational routines, thereby affecting organizations in new and distinct ways. In this article, we categorize four forms of conjoined agency between humans and t...

摘要：Understanding the impact that employee job performance has on firm value creation and capture has been an enduring challenge. Micro management scholarship has focused on employee job performance behavior and rarely considered the extent to which value created by employees is actually appropriable by the employing firm. Simultaneously, macro management scholarship has focused on firm value creation and capture without explicit attention to the nature and types of individual job performance or c...

摘要：Published testimony in management, as in other sciences, includes cases where authors have overstated the inferential value of their analysis. Where some scholars have diagnosed a current crisis, we detect an ongoing and universal difficulty: the epistemic problem of learning from testimony. Overcoming this difficulty will require responses suited to the conditions of management research. To that end, we reviewthe philosophical literature on the epistemology of testimony, which describes the c...
