摘要：Is there a liability of foreignness in online crowdsourcing contests for creative work? Digitalization mitigates physical orthodox transaction-based frictions and is therefore expected to reduce the liability of foreignness. However, for creative work sourced digitally across borders, due to the decoupling of the locus of creation from the locus of selection and due to the cognitive nature of creative tasks, we suggest that frictions continue to arise from foreign solvers' cognitive home biase...

摘要：Many consumer goods multinational companies (MNCs) operate host-market subsidiaries that are responsible for managing relationships with local retailers. These retailers often follow a decentralized approach by formally involving their store managers in key decision-making processes related to the MNCs' brands. While store managers play a key role in the success of MNCs' brands, two key questions remain unanswered: (1) what drives a store manager's psychological engagement with MNCs' brands ac...

摘要：Islamic assets, assets compliant with ethical and religious norms as codified in Sharia law, broaden the investor base. Do such investments contribute to mean-variance efficiency, and if so, how? Using daily data on stock, bond, and money market indices from nine Islamic countries and 37 non-Islamic ones from May 2007 to June 2010, we show that adding Islamic assets to an existing portfolio of conventional (non-Islamic) assets can expand the mean-variance frontier and thereby create additional...

摘要：The literature has long acknowledged the impact of stereotypical associations with a product's country of origin (COO) on consumers' cognitive assessments of the product. However, consumers' emotional reactions to a product's COO can also influence their decisions. For example, the literature reports a monotonically negative relationship between consumer animosity (CA) and the purchase of products from an animosity-evoking country. The literature provides an incomplete picture though because i...

摘要：This paper seeks to identify the social dynamics underlying '' socially driven '' acquisitions and their effect on post-acquisition performance. Drawing on research into social stratification, we formulate hypotheses on how these socially driven acquisitions perform in relation to both the position held by the acquirers' top managers (CEOs and owners) in the social hierarchy and the extent to which the acquisition context is socially loaded (prestigious). We examine these hypotheses empiricall...

摘要：Despite growing attention to the role of home countries in studies of emerging-market multinational enterprises (EMNEs), there is limited focus on how international expansion affects EMNEs' home conditions. Drawing on signaling theory, we propose that EMNEs' international expansions serve as a signaling mechanism that shapes perceptions of stakeholders in their home countries and thus facilitate their resource acquisition from these stakeholders. The signaling effect is strengthened when EMNEs...

摘要：Information security and data breaches are perhaps the biggest challenges that global businesses face in the digital economy. Although data breaches can cause significant harm to users, businesses, and society, there is significant individual and national variation in people's responses to data breaches across markets. This research investigates power distance as an antecedent of people's divergent reactions to data breaches. Eight studies using archival, correlational, and experimental method...

摘要：We investigate the relation between international taxation and the organizational form of foreign direct investment (FDI). Using micro-level data on inbound FDI relations in Germany, we find that a higher tax burden on income earned in a corporate subsidiary increases the probability that a multinational corporation (MNC) conducts foreign investment through a non-corporate flow-through. This effect is economically meaningful and varies with the relative importance of tax-motivated income shift...

摘要：Digital solutions are increasingly used to address wicked problems that are locally embedded but require global approaches. Scaling these solutions internationally is imperative for their success, but to date we know little about this process. Using a qualitative case study methodology, our paper analyzes how four digital solutions driven by the United Nations are built and how they scale internationally. These solutions address wicked problems through artificial intelligence, blockchain, and ...
