A theoretical framework is proposed that identifies five types of legitimacy associated with strategic alliances and the specific conditions under which legitimation may be an important outcome of strat...

摘要:A long-standing debate has focused on the extent to which different levels of analysis shape firm performance.

In this study, we use hierarchical linear modeling to simultaneously estimate firm-, strategic group-, and industry-level influences oil short-term and long-term measures of performance. We assess the three levels' explanatory power using a sample of 1, 165 firms in ...

Specifically, utilities that served customers who exhibited higher levels of environmental se...

However, to date no systematic assessment of the RBV's level of empirical support has been conducted. In response, a sample of RBV-grounded empirical articles was analyzed from which it was found that the RBV has received only modest support overall and that this support varies considerably with the independent variable and theoretical approach employed. It is therefore suggested that scholars a...
