摘要：International business scholars have successfully applied transactions cost economics theories of the firm to understand a wide variety of global business phenomena. However, because this theory takes the value of a global exchange as given, and then examines how to organize this exchange most efficiently, it cannot be considered a strategic theory of the firm. Some of the key elements of such a strategic theory of the firm, and how their introduction to international business research could c...

摘要：Young management scholars often wonder to what extent they should emphasize international business scholarship in their career. In this commentary, we argue that, in addition to its intellectual merits, publishing in the leading outlet in the field, Journal of International Business Studies (JIBS), also pays financially on a par with publishing in other top management journals. Our claim is based on an analysis of the impact of JIBS publications on a strategy faculty's nine-month salary for a ...

摘要：We examine the 2022 JIBS Decade Award article by Ioannou and Serafeim (J Int Bus Stud 43(9):834-864, 2012) and review the literature since 2012 to clarify research developments in corporate social responsibility and corporate social performance (CSP) in the multinational enterprise, articulating key themes, findings and antecedents. We present a general framework that highlights unique traits and processes of CSP for MNEs. To advance scholarly progress, we delineate how new theoretical perspec...

摘要：We conjecture that angel investment in entrepreneurial firms depends on two types of bankruptcy laws around the world. Corporate bankruptcy laws impact investor terms and incentives to finance risky entrepreneurs, particularly given reforms that brought about a time-efficient, simplified, and clear process in recent years in some countries. Personal bankruptcy laws impact entrepreneurial motivations to engage in risk-taking and entrepreneurship and thus affect the demand for angel financing. I...

摘要：The potential of multinational enterprises (MNEs) to accelerate economic development and reduce inequality has been recognized since the industrial revolution, when states sought to actively engage foreign capital in industrialization. Over time, the MNE-state compact has waxed and waned in significance due to (geo-)political developments, shaped in part by how the economic surpluses of foreign capital were distributed between domestic actors. Government policies matter as to how they prioriti...

摘要：In anticipation of the upcoming changes and turbulence caused by Industry 4.0, in which digital integration connects all value chain members, managers at leading multinational enterprises (MNEs) are scrambling to predict the associated changes in the market. This pioneering study advances our understanding by investigating the impact of an MNE's Industry 4.0 orientation on the globalization of its value chain network. Identifying two types of value-generation activities as potential moderators...

摘要：Employing insights from political economics, international relations, and China studies, we identify the key variables that shape the dynamics of the U.S.-China rivalry and investigate their impacts on the bifurcation and value-chain decoupling processes. We show that the ongoing conflict and disengagement processes are more likely to evolve in the long run in significantly different ways to the one envisioned by current Washington decision-makers and echoed by Petricevic and Teece (2019). The...

摘要：Africa is rising, but IB scholars have largely failed to take notice. We argue that this is a missed opportunity. Not only is Africa a dynamic and distinctive region, but its rise presents a number of puzzles for international business (IB) research, with phenomena that seem to challenge fundamental assumptions underlying IB theories. In order to unravel these puzzles and better explain business dynamics on the continent, we contend that there is a need for IB theorizing to place greater empha...
