摘要：Although stakeholder norms originating in developed economies influence firms' board composition, including board diversity, less is known about firms in emerging economies, specifically India. In this heterogeneous institutional context, firms' strategic choices are subject to changing institutional forces and complex social structures. Bridging the institutions-based view with the network theory, this study examines Indian MNEs' strategic choices regarding an important socio-economic diversi...

摘要：Growing techno-geopolitical uncertainty affects international business in many ways, calling for more scholarly attention to its causes and multinational enterprise (MNE) responses. The United States CHIPS and Science Act epitomizes the country's recent embrace of techno-nationalism in its economic rivalry with China, which has major implications for IB scholarship and management practice. The Act exhibits two features that fly against America's traditional liberal policy stance of championing...

摘要：In this commentary, we engage with the study by Carney, El Ghoul, Guedhami, Lu and Wang, titled Political corporate social responsibility: The role of deliberative capacity.'' Their study provides empirical support for earlier claims that deliberative capacity - the capacity of political institutions to enable diverse stakeholders to collectively assemble and voice their opinions - is an important building block to understanding the prominence or lack thereof of corporate social responsibility...

摘要：A primary research area within the field of international business (IB) is to establish the extent to which concepts, theories, and findings identified in one country are applicable to other contexts and which are unique and cannot be found in other contexts. Researchers in IB acknowledge the importance of the context in their studies, but the practice of assessing equivalence (or invariance) is not widely diffused within the community. We first discuss the components of equivalence (construct...

摘要：This Research Note provides an assessment of the burgeoning interdisciplinary literature surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on both individuals and firms, with a particular focus on the heterogeneity in government responses and their implications for international finance and IB research. In particular, we discuss disparities in vaccine distribution, government policy responses, and impacts in low-income versus high-income countries, as well as lessons learned from the pandemic. ...

摘要：Although many of the benefits of cross-listing have been examined in prior research, potential improvements in price efficiency have received less attention. We examine the differences in price efficiencies between American depositary receipts (ADRs) of foreign firms and the shares listed in their home markets. Based on multifractal detrended fluctuation analysis (MF-DFA) of the daily price of 200 ADRs and their domestically listed shares for the period from January 2010 to June 2019, we find ...

摘要：International joint ventures (IJVs) have become an important source of critical knowledge for multinational enterprises, but little is known about how knowledge can be effectively transferred to parent firms when the potential for interpartner opportunism still exists. Drawing on attachment theory, we study how boundary-spanning commitments to IJVs may help mitigate interpartner opportunism and facilitate effective knowledge transfer to parents. Specifically, we argue that knowledge transfer f...

摘要：Employees with relevant knowledge and skills for digitalization have become increasingly important for the competitiveness of MNCs. However, the shortage of such digital human capital in many host countries is putting pressure on MNC subsidiaries to prevent these employees from leaving. We theorize that the retention of digital human capital in MNC subsidiaries does not merely depend on salaries but crucially on the learning opportunities that subsidiaries offer. By integrating mechanisms from...

摘要：Digital technologies are changing how businesses strategize and organize internationally. They not only enable cost reduction in businesses crossing national boundaries but also enable novel types of products and business models. Yet, barriers to cross-border businesses persist or even re-emerge, such that the study of international business remains important in the digital age, but may have to shift focus. We argue that businesses operating internationally develop digital business strategies ...
