摘要:The event study or event study method (ESM) is an empirical technique for capturing investors' reaction to an event affecting one or more publicly traded firms. The ESM has been little employed in international business (IB) research despite its frequency in accounting, economics, and finance; for example, only two percent of the empirical articles in JIBS over 1970-2019 include an event study. While this scarcity could indicate a lack of demand, we argue that the field of IB studies offers ma...

摘要:Understanding government institutions in a host country is crucial for MNC subsidiaries. This is challenging, as host-country institutions not only relate to formal institutions, such as laws and regulations, but also to informal institutions, like traditions and beliefs. We study the hiring of employees with government work experience as a channel through which foreign MNC subsidiaries can better understand host-country institutions. Government work represents a context in which employees hav...

摘要:We study MNEs that tie their long-lasting competitiveness and internationalization to the deployment of their heritage assets, administrative heritage, and signature processes built in their home markets. When faced with changes, these authentic firms scan for and buffer against threats to their signature processes, use their heritage endowment to focus on their capacity to maintain and defend their niches, and preserve their capacity for stability. We complement the traditional dynamic capabi...

摘要:Lindner et al. (J Int Bus Stud 51:283-298, 2020; hereafter LPV) and Kalnins (Strateg Manag J 39(8):2362-2385, 2018) have published recent original analyses on multicollinearity, but the conclusions appear contradictory. LPV argue that multicollinearity does not affect the validity of regression coefficients, but only their reliability. In other words, multicollinearity does not bias coefficients, but only inflates standard errors. In Kalnins (2018), I conclude that multicollinearity may bias c...

摘要:We characterize the knowledge production process whereby the inventive capabilities of the firm generate innovation output in highly inventive multinational enterprises (MNEs). We explore the sensitivity of this relationship to the strength of intellectual property rights (IPR) protection across the MNEs R&D subsidiaries. We argue that MNE innovative performance will be enhanced when the firm's R&D activities are based in locations where IPR protection is stronger. Moreover, when considering t...

摘要:In responding to the Forsgren and Holm (2021) critique of internalization theory, we develop a capability-based model of internalization and quasi-internalization, highlighting the key role of the international recombination of assets. With external control mechanisms becoming more sophisticated, full internalization has become increasingly unnecessary. Rather, the capacity to orchestrate complex networks is an increasingly important source of competitive advantage. We demonstrate that interna...

摘要:We are entering a significantly fragmented world that is full of extreme disruptions and adversities. New connectivity in digital form proves the essential characteristic to help international businesses better cope with these disruptions. This connectivity signifies a dominant feature of the new era of international business and a critical catalyst to address new uncertainties in today's fragmented world. However, this new normal raises a series of complex issues that extend the IB research a...
