  摘要：Green governance aims to resolve environmental externalities at minimum cost. By uniting Coase's two foundational theories (Economica 4: 386-405, 1937; J Law Econ 3: 1-44, 1960) we reframe MNEs not merely as profit-seeking entities but as transnational institutions capable of internalizing environmental externalities through green innovation across borders. We show how national environmental regulation spurs subsidiary-level green patenting with profit spillovers into third-country markets, th...

  摘要：This study analyzes the impact of digital transformation on manufacturing multinational enterprises' (MNEs) offshore outsourcing intensity. We distinguish two independent categories of digital transformation: information-centric (IDT) and manufacturing-centric (MDT). Applying transaction costs economics (TCE), we argue that IDT decreases offshore outsourcing intensity, while MDT increases it. These effects arise from their respective influences on the specificity of an MNE's core value-adding ...
• Navigating geopolitical risks: How US firms adjust supply chains amid US-China rivalry AI翻译

  摘要：We investigate how U.S. firms adapt their supply chains in China in response to geopolitical risks from the U.S.-China rivalry. We offer a legitimacy-efficiency balancing perspective to understand firm decisions. We hypothesize that to maintain legitimacy with the home government, U.S. firms in strategic industries are more likely than those in non-strategic industries to align with the U.S. government's derisking strategy by limiting suppliers in China. However, we expect this tendency to wea...
• Venture capital funding in Africa: a mixed-methods study of evolving ecosystems and financial discrimination AI翻译
  作者：Kabengele, Christian; Hahn, Ruediger
  作者单位：Heinrich Heine University Dusseldorf; Heinrich Heine University Dusseldorf
  摘要：Africa's startup ecosystem is growing rapidly, yet venture capital (VC) funding remains disproportionately allocated to non-African founders. This study investigates the factors driving this disparity, focusing on institutional voids - gaps in legal frameworks, financial infrastructure, and market-supporting institutions - and investors' perceptions of risk and financial discrimination. We conducted 37 interviews with investors and entrepreneurs to identify the determinants of VC funding, incl...

  摘要：Despite increasing interest, research within the context of Africa, particularly in relation to its unique historical dynamics, remains relatively underexplored in international business (IB). Our paper explores how colonial-era historical legacies continue to shape the outcomes of present-day private participation infrastructure (PPI) projects in Africa. By analyzing 301 PPI projects across 102 ethnic groups in 32 African countries, we offer insights into how borders misaligned with pre-colon...

  摘要：This essay revisits my 2014 JIBS article about the potential for integrating international business internalization theory with a strategic management capabilities perspective. It recaps the capabilities framework with an emphasis on the learning required of emerging market multinationals and illustrates this with the case of Hyundai Motor Company's internationalization and growth. It also discusses two aspects of the global economy that have become more prominent since 2014 in shaping interna...
• Foreignness as a double-edged sword for internationalizing cultural goods: deep learning-based semiotic analysis of Hollywood movies in China AI翻译
  作者：Gu, Qian (Cecilia); Wang, Yanqing; Zhang, Jiamin
  作者单位：University System of Georgia; Georgia State University; Peking University
  摘要：Globalization of cultural goods has grown substantively over the past decade. Rooted in the home-country social context, cultural goods are inherently foreign when traded in a host country. However, how foreignness is manifested in cultural goods, and how the associated liability and asset of foreignness jointly affect their host-country market performance remain unclear. We address these questions by examining 304 Hollywood movies in China from 2011 to 2018, focusing on semiotic foreignness -...
