  摘要：With increasing public attention to corporate sustainability, environmental, social, and governance (ESG) controversies emerging in global supply chains present a growing problem for multinational enterprises (MNEs). This paper investigates whether MNEs with geographically dispersed suppliers are more likely to be exposed to supplier-related ESG controversies. It also explores structural characteristics of global supply chains that can mitigate MNEs' exposure to such controversies. Building on...
• Venture capital funding in Africa: a mixed-methods study of evolving ecosystems and financial discrimination AI翻译
  作者：Kabengele, Christian; Hahn, Ruediger

  摘要：Africa's startup ecosystem is growing rapidly, yet venture capital (VC) funding remains disproportionately allocated to non-African founders. This study investigates the factors driving this disparity, focusing on institutional voids - gaps in legal frameworks, financial infrastructure, and market-supporting institutions - and investors' perceptions of risk and financial discrimination. We conducted 37 interviews with investors and entrepreneurs to identify the determinants of VC funding, incl...

• Indigenous peoples' reactions to foreign direct investment: a social movement perspective AI翻译

  摘要：A growing body of literature highlights that large-scale investments in sensitive contexts can undermine both firm financial performance and peace-positive development. We investigate whether and under what conditions foreign direct investment (FDI) proximate to Indigenous land claims increases or decreases conflict. Drawing on social movement theory's identification of powerful frames and political opportunity structures as drivers of mobilization, we predict that FDI proximate to Indigenous ...

  摘要：This counterpoint challenges the view advanced by Yu, Bansal, and Arjali & egrave;s (J Int Business Stud 54:1151-1169, 2023), who argue that multinational enterprises (MNEs), by virtue of their cross-border operations, are inherently detrimental to the environment. While Yu et al.'s call for responsible resource use is commendable, we contend that their framework oversimplifies the complex realities of international business (IB). Drawing on New Internalization Theory (NIT), we examine environ...

  摘要：Digitalization and global disruptions have fundamentally changed how we approach work. Global virtual work has become increasingly widespread in recent years, often replacing or complementing traditional expatriation and international business travel. To advance our understanding of this phenomenon, we systematically reviewed the literature on global virtual work, distinguishing it into three domains: global virtual teams, distributed work, and the use of digital technologies. For each domain,...
• Heterogeneity and internationalization of government investments: sovereign wealth funds and beyond AI翻译
  作者：Borisova, Ginka

  摘要：Despite its continued significance and dynamic forms, government ownership is often presented in broad, monolithic terms. Comparing 67,464 government and private acquirer transactions over four decades, we highlight important distinctions in target selection and valuation effects of 129 unique government investment funds (GIFs), including sovereign wealth funds (SWFs), lesser-known subsidiaries called sovereign wealth enterprises (SWEs), and government-owned pension funds. GIFs, particularly S...
• Revisiting the liability of foreignness: political ideology, globalization, and discrimination AI翻译

  摘要：Equal treatment of foreign and local firms is the cornerstone of international investment law. Yet, why do foreign firms face discrimination in host countries? We analyze this critical but underexplored aspect of the liability of foreignness in two stages. First, drawing on the insights from political science, we argue that the political ideology of the host government along the left-right spectrum drives discriminatory dynamics, resulting in elevated regulatory risk for foreign firms. Next, w...
