摘要：This counterpoint examines the relevance of Trevino and Doh's proposed new discourse-based view of internationalization for the field of International Business (IB). Trevino and Doh introduce their framework to address gaps in Internationalization Process Theory (IPT), which does not account for the underlying processes that lead to the initial managerial decision to internationalize. Framing our counterpoint around recent debates on how interdisciplinary research fields determine which new id...

摘要：Research ethics have received comprehensive institutional attention at least since the creation of the U.S. Panel on Scientific Responsibility and the Conduct of Research in 1989. Over the last decade, business scholars have focused on a variety of important questions in research ethics, with significant attention being focused on the grey areas of questionable research practices. This editorial adopts a different approach. The normative foundations of research ethics, and the core values that...

摘要：Since the Uppsala process model was launched 1977, we have seen an extensive amount of research on the internationalization of firms, with the model as a point of departure. Here, we analyze an interesting article published in JIBS by Trevino and Doh, who apply a discourse-based view on the internationalization of the firm. We place their work in the context of the research conducted after the Uppsala model was developed with special reference to the generalizing and singularizing purposes of ...

摘要：Prior international business research recognizes that networks can affect internationalization decisions, yet our understanding of how networks in the host country do so, especially with respect to establishment mode choices between greenfield and acquisition, remains nascent. Host-country networks become particularly salient after initial entry as the multinational enterprise (MNE) more directly engages with local actors and develops embeddedness in the host country. We draw from network theo...

摘要：The key elements of the Uppsala school paradigm of the internationalization process of the firm are the historical context to which it applies and the micro-foundations that shape firm internationalization. Technological, institutional, and political developments of recent decades have fundamentally changed both the context of international business activities and the managerial practices that guide firm behavior. Consequent revisions of the model shifted its focus from 'internationalization' ...

摘要：Complementing Nielsen and colleagues' (2020) analysis of methodological trends in the Journal of International Business Studies over the past 50 years, we examine similar data on methods published in a wider range of leading international business (IB) journals. Our analysis shows a clear decline of studies based on primary data relative to secondary data, and a persistently low level of individual-level studies among the growing body of research using secondary data across all IB journals con...

摘要：MNCs often engage in international research collaborations with foreign universities through one of their central R&D laboratories (at headquarters or elsewhere) even though they operate a local R&D unit close to that university, and hence forego the benefits of geographic proximity and local collaboration. Drawing on the knowledge-based theory of the firm, we hypothesize that the choice between distant and local collaboration systematically relates to the knowledge capabilities of the firms' ...

摘要：Despite the fragile economic and political environment in conflict-affected countries, a significant number of multinational enterprises (MNEs) enter these markets, particularly as conditions begin to improve. To better understand how MNEs respond to positive institutional changes in challenging markets, we examine the relative effects of peace agreements and MNE capabilities on foreign direct investment. We expect that MNEs can engage in institutional arbitrage by leveraging political capabil...

摘要：We investigate how intergovernmental ties at subnational levels between home and host countries influence the intensity and location of foreign direct investment (FDI) inflows. We focus on an intriguing type of subnational tie, namely, International Friendship (Sister) Cities. A sister city is a decentralized form of intergovernmental relationship that provides a platform by which a multinational corporation (MNC) can approach a local government, customers, and clients to acquire localized inf...
