摘要:This study addresses a new dimension that describes interdependence between alliance members, namely, economic integration-the extent to which resources contributed by different alliance members and subsequent operations using these resources are effectively blended into an alliance's value chain to the point where if one member withdraws, the remaining member(s) suffer great loss. We posit that economic integration has a linear positive affect on alliance stability but a curvilinear (diminish...

An acquirer's size, the scope of its acquisition program, and acquisition experience moderate the relationship by weakening the negative effects. Our findings contribute to an improved understanding of acquisition capabilities and program-level acquisition performanc...
