摘要：Nation-states are designing their industrial policies increasingly to not only enhance national competitiveness, but also to simultaneously address Green Challenges, concerns about the natural environment that require concerted action among different actors in society, including domestic and foreign multinational enterprises (MNEs). This blending of global and national policy objectives is leading to a new wave of industrial policies in advanced economies that are informed by scholarly discour...

摘要：Existing research has underscored that the lack of supplier visibility poses a primary obstacle for multinational corporations (MNCs) to tackle human rights violations within their global supply chains (GSC). To address this challenge, MNCs are increasingly adopting the concept of smart disclosure to enhance supplier visibility. However, its conceptualization, operationalization, and efficacy in reducing human rights violations, remain unclear. Filling this gap, we first draw on research about...

摘要：As China's economy rose to become the second largest in the world, its institutions did not converge with those of other advanced economies as predicted by many Western observers; instead, China developed a distinct form of state-led capitalism. As a result, how multinational enterprises (MNEs) engage with China's changing institutional context needs to be revisited. To this end, we review 331 papers on MNE strategies and operations in China published in top international business and manageme...

摘要：A substantial body of literature has shown that political connections have benefited firms domestically, but their cross-border value for multinational enterprises (MNEs) remains understudied. This paper provides novel evidence on the strategic advantages MNEs gain through political ties in host countries and the consequences for domestic firms. Examining foreign companies' contributions to US political campaigns through political action committees (PACs) sponsored by their US subsidiaries, we...

摘要：We study how collectivism, religion-tradition, thriftiness, and status/materialist consumption values jointly shape consumption preferences in seven Asian markets. These markets are diverse but relatively small, so identifying similarities should help companies implement standardized marketing strategies. Using data from 3000+ consumers, we find the effects to be largely similar. Collectivistic values directly and indirectly increase both religious and thriftiness values, both of which negativ...

摘要：We study how misbehavior in a multinational's value network, not only in subsidiaries but also in suppliers, affects its corporate social responsibility (CSR) performance. Combining the network perspective of multinationals with the risk management view of CSR, we argue that major misbehavior in subsidiaries and independent suppliers leads to CSR performance improvements. The reason is that in response to the misbehavior, the multinational not only addresses the specific problem with the misbe...

摘要：Given the multilingual nature of global business, language influences international business (IB) in almost all areas. IB scholars have studied the complex influence of language with manifold theoretical lenses, but have not systematically integrated linguistic theories. Aiming to broaden IB's theoretical repertoire, we draw on a field that has integrated a rich array of linguistic theories with business perspectives: research on foreign languages in advertising. We review the theories linguis...

摘要：As international business (IB) scholars seek to invigorate the field and steer it away from what some deem a research coma resulting from a narrowing scope, the significance of foreign divestment (FD) has once again been relegated amidst other pressing topics. We advocate for elevating FD to the same level of importance as foreign direct investment (FDI). Despite emerging a decade after seminal contributions on FDI, FD has suffered from a notable lack of attention in IB research and educationa...
