• The determinants of MNE subsidiaries' political strategies: evidence of institutional duality AI翻译
  作者：Hillman, AJ; Wan, WP
  作者单位：Arizona State University; Arizona State University-Tempe
  摘要：In this study, we develop and test a model of the determinants of political strategies used by foreign subsidiaries of multinational enterprises (MNEs). Using recent theoretical advances in institutional theory that recognize that MNE subsidiaries are confronted with pressures for isomorphism within the corporation (internal legitimacy) and within the host country (external legitimacy), we integrate international business and political strategy literatures to create a multilevel model of subsi...
• Governments, reciprocal exchange and trust among business associates AI翻译

  摘要：Both Pearce and Molm have conducted research in interpersonal trust. Here we apply their work to international business by deriving hypotheses from their work, some compatible, some conflicting. We test them with data from managers in China, the United States, Hong Kong and Thailand using measures from the World Bank, World Competitiveness Report, and Transparency International and managerial interviews. We find support for Pearce's arguments on the effects of governmental facilitation on mana...
• Toward a model of issue-selling by subsidiary managers in multinational organizations AI翻译
  作者：Ling, Y; Floyd, SW; Baldridge, DC
  作者单位：George Mason University; University of Connecticut; Oregon State University
  摘要：In multinational organizations, local market responsiveness is critical to the development of effective strategies. This responsiveness is expected to occur in part as the result of upward influence from local subsidiary managers, who represent the local culture and shift relevant priorities accordingly. Issue-selling - defined as directing top management's attention to particular issues and helping them understand such issues - is one important way in which subsidiary managers pursue upward i...
• Probing theoretically into Central and Eastern Europe: transactions, resources, and institutions AI翻译
  作者：Meyer, KE; Peng, MW

  摘要：Since the 1990s, Central and Eastern Europe (CEE) has provided unique societal quasi-experiments, which represent opportunities to test the applicability of existing theories in international business and management studies and to develop new ones. Specifically, three lines of theorising have been advanced: ( 1) organisational economics theories; ( 2) resource-based theories; and ( 3) institutional theories. For each of these theories, we discuss how they contribute to the understanding of key...
• Stock market valuation of joint venture sell-offs AI翻译
  作者：Meschi, PX
  作者单位：Aix-Marseille Universite
  摘要：This article examines the stock market performance implications of joint venture (JV) partner sell-offs using a resource-based view and an event study methodology. More specifically, it proposes hypotheses putting into evidence the stock market valuation of different reasons for JV sell-offs (refocusing of a business, debt reduction, and JV failure). Abnormal returns (ARs) from JV sell-offs are estimated for a sample of 151 European selling partners. First, the results show that stock market r...
• Speculation in international crises: report from the Gulf AI翻译
  作者：Weiner, RJ
  作者单位：George Washington University; Laval University
  摘要：Recent years have seen recurring international financial crises, as well as a tremendous rise in trading and speculation. How are the two related? Are speculators and trading responsible for market volatility? This paper presents a study of the Gulf Crisis of 1990-1991, examining the behavior of the international oil market during a period of unprecedented volatility. The analysis suggests that a combination of political events and market fundamentals, rather than trading, was behind this vola...
• Brand origin recognition accuracy: its antecedents and consumers' cognitive limitations AI翻译
  作者：Samiee, S; Shimp, TA; Sharma, S

  摘要：An ever-growing literature has reported consumer bias toward national origins of products, and has explored factors that moderate such bias. Researchers have assumed, if only tacitly, that consumers are knowledgeable of brand origins, and that this knowledge is a significant influence that drives judgments of product quality, brand attitudes, and choice behavior in the marketplace. Using categorization theory and attribute diagnosticity as the theoretical foundation, our research reveals that ...
• Extending internalization theory: a new perspective on international technology transfer and its generalization AI翻译
  作者：Chen, SFS
  作者单位：Brandeis University
  摘要：Internalization theory suggests that multinational enterprises set up subsidiaries to exploit technology advantages abroad when licensing is too difficult to arrange with indigenous firms. This direct investment vs licensing trade-off, which is built on a business-to-business transaction, does not recognize the linkages with the final products market as a component of transaction cost analysis. By adopting a unilateral perspective on international technology transfer, neither does it consider ...

  摘要：Our article that has been awarded the 2004 Journal of International Business Studies Decade Award, 'Toward a Theory of International New Ventures', represents an integration of international business, entrepreneurship, and strategic management scholarship. This retrospective article explains the intellectual and personal origins of the work. In addition, it highlights the definitions of 'international new ventures' and 'international entrepreneurship'. Finally, in response to recent concerns a...

  摘要：The paper provides a state-of-the-art review of several innovative advances in culture and international business (IB) to stimulate new avenues for future research. We first review the issues surrounding cultural convergence and divergence, and the processes underlying cultural changes. We then examine novel constructs for characterizing cultures, and how to enhance the precision of cultural models by pinpointing when cultural effects are important. Finally, we examine the usefulness of experi...
