• Capitalizing on the uniqueness of international business: Towards a theory of place, space, and organization AI翻译
  作者：Beugelsdijk, Sjoerd

  摘要：The field of international business (IB) has been successful in developing a unique body of knowledge on the multinational corporation and on country-level contexts. A recurring debate concerns its claim to uniqueness, and to associated scholarly characteristics that distinguish IB from other fields of research. I discuss what makes IB research unique by looking at what IB theory can explain and predict. To that end, I leverage key theoretical arguments and empirical insights to advance an und...

• Organizational identity work in MNE subsidiaries: Managing dual embeddedness AI翻译

  摘要：This paper adopts an organizational identity work perspective to examine how MNE subsidiaries manage dual embeddedness to strategically position themselves in both their local context and in the global MNE. Prior research suggests that although dual embeddedness provides benefits, it also brings challenges, as subsidiaries must effectively balance external pressures and expectations with internal ones. Through a qualitative case study of organizational identity work in the subsidiaries of a No...

  摘要：Intellectual property rights (IPRs) are of critical importance in international business. The implications for firm strategy and for policymakers are rarely aligned because the optimal level of IPR protection can be quite different from the country- and the firm-level perspectives. There is considerable heterogeneity in firm strategies, the spatial distribution of their innovation activities, and their IPR portfolios. There is still greater variation between countries, their IPR legislation an...
• Developing theoretically informed typologies in international business: Why we need them, and how to do it AI翻译
  作者：Allen, Matthew M. C.; Wood, Geoffrey; Demirbag, Mehmet
  作者单位：Bangor University
  摘要：In this article, we make the case for theoretically/logically derived explanatory typologies and their constituent ideal types, arguing that they can provide us with the basis to further understand dynamic and complex contemporary phenomena. We contrast this approach with dominant analytical strategies in international-business research. We show that the greater use of explanatory typologies and their associated ideal types in international-business research facilitates comparisons of similar ...
• Complexity in international business: The implications for theory AI翻译
  作者：Casson, Mark; Li, Yutong
  作者单位：University of Reading; University of Reading
  摘要：International business is inherently complex for four main reasons: the large number of countries, products, technologies and firms involved, the intricate connectivity of international transport and communications networks, the diversity of the political, cultural and regulatory environment, and the speed and unpredictability of change. The complexity created by these features can be measured using the techniques presented in this paper. IB has developed simple and powerful theories which abs...

  摘要：Twenty years after the prior survey, the seventh international business curriculum survey was conducted in 2020 under the sponsorship of the Academy of International Business (AIB) and the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business (AACSB). This paper reports the survey's findings and makes relevant comparisons with the results of the two previous curriculum surveys. This study is not only an update but also explores new directions of international business (IB) integration into the...
• Charting new courses to enter foreign markets: Conceptualization, theoretical framework, and research directions on non-traditional entry modes AI翻译

  摘要：Recent advances in digitalization and increasing integration of international markets are paving the way for a new generation of firms to use non-traditional entry modes that are largely marginalized in previous entry mode studies. While extant research revolves around the level of resource commitment and control in foreign activities, non-traditional modes are encapsulated by the extent of embeddedness required for exploring new and/or exploiting existing resources. In particular, we draw att...
