  摘要：It is well established that a link exists between a country's legal system and the size, liquidity, and value of its capital markets. We study how differences in country-level governance affect the underpricing of initial public offerings (IPOs). Examining 4462 IPOs across 29 countries from 2000 to 2004, we find the surprising result that underpricing is higher in countries with corporate governance that strengthens the position of investors relative to insiders. We conjecture that when countr...
• Host-country policies and MNE management control in IJVs: Evidence from China AI翻译
  作者：Chen, Dong; Paik, Yongsun; Park, Seung Ho

  摘要：In international joint ventures (IJVs), partner firms exert three types of management control: output, process, and social. Since management control critically influences IJV success, it is essential to understand what factors drive the development of the control system. Prior studies have focused mainly on IJVs' internal conditions, and have largely neglected external institutional influences on IJV control. In this study we explore how host-country policies affect MNE partners' control over ...
• Do international acquisitions by emerging-economy firms create shareholder value? The case of Indian firms AI翻译

  摘要：While overseas acquisitions by emerging-economy firms are gaining increased attention from the business press, our understanding of whether and why this inorganic mode of international expansion creates value to acquirer firms is limited. We argue that international acquisitions facilitate internalization of tangible and intangible resources that are both difficult to trade through market transactions and take time to develop internally, thus constituting an important strategic lever of value ...
• Capabilities as a mediator linking resources and the international performance of entrepreneurial firms in an emerging economy AI翻译

  摘要：This study investigates an under-researched topic: the relationships between capabilities, resources, and international performance among entrepreneurial firms in an emerging economy. We combine the resource-based view of the firm and the capability-building perspective of rent creation to shed light on the crucial role of firm-specific capabilities that transform key resources into performance outcomes. Employing a large sample of Chinese entrepreneurial firms, our investigation demonstrates ...
• Interpersonal influence as an alternative channel communication behavior in emerging markets: The case of China AI翻译

  摘要：Channel communications in emerging markets are embedded in the intricacy of economic and sociocultural environments. Managing channel relationships in emerging markets therefore requires more than formal interfirm communication to rely on interpersonal influence. Extending embeddedness theory, we offer a conceptualization incorporating three embedding elements - task environment, social relations, and institutional norms - into a preliminary model that specifies the antecedents, moderators, an...
• Think glocally, act glocally: a culture-centric comment on Leung, Bhagat, Buchan, Erez and Gibson (2005) AI翻译

  摘要：Culture is a critical variable in international business (IB), and Leung, Bhagat, Buchan, Erez and Gibson (2005) enrich our understanding of its role. However, that said, their framing of this variable conflates the role of national culture (NC), a particular form of culture, with culture itself, a more pivotal, holistic and central construct. This paper, by commenting on and critiquing their approach, seeks to shift the theoretical center of gravity from a NC-centric paradigm to a culture-cen...
• The regional dimension of MNEs' foreign subsidiary localization AI翻译

  摘要：This paper examines the regional effect of MNEs' foreign subsidiary localization. We hypothesize that the number of subsequent foreign subsidiaries in a country is in part determined by a firm's prior foreign subsidiary activity at the regional level. We test our hypotheses using data on 1076 Japanese MNEs that created 3466 foreign subsidiaries ( 1837 wholly owned FDIs and 1629 joint ventures) over the period 1996-2001. We use a multilevel negative binomial approach with three levels of analys...
• Location and the multinational enterprise: A neglected factor? AI翻译
  作者：Dunning, John H.
  作者单位：Rutgers University System; Rutgers University New Brunswick; University of Reading
  摘要：This article first traces the changing world economic scenario for international business over the past two decades, and then goes on to examine its implications for the location of foreign direct investment and multinational enterprise activity. It suggests that many of the explanations of the 1970s and early 1980s need to be modified as firm-specific assets have become mobile across natural boundaries. A final section of the article examines the dynamic interface between the value-added acti...
• Preferred leadership prototypes of male and female leaders in 27 countries AI翻译

  摘要：Our study shows that preferred leadership prototypes held by female leaders differ from the prototypes held by male leaders, and that these prototype differences vary across countries, cultures, and especially industries. In general, female managers prefer participative, team oriented, and charismatic leadership prototype dimensions more than males. Contrary to popular belief, both males and females valued humane-oriented leadership equally. Gender egalitarianism and industry type were importa...
