摘要：Multinational enterprises (MNEs) can be agents of positive climate action by deploying their vast resources, technology, capital, and collaborative partnerships. They can also promote cross-border mobility of corporate governance and regulatory standards. Allen et al. (J Int Bus Stud, 2024) provide a systematic descriptive analysis to support such an MNE role. In my commentary, I provide a perspective from low-income countries, particularly Africa. Although they face disproportionate climate i...

摘要：While there is substantial literature on global mobility, roles in the global integration of multinationals are not limited to internationally mobile staff. We focus on 'globalizing actors', defined as those within multinationals who are involved in global norm-making. Using interview-based qualitative data, we categorize individuals' involvement in global norm-making according to the function within norm formation in which they are involved, their source of influence, and their geographical a...

摘要：How should a multinational enterprise (MNE) shape its own agility in response to the environments in which it operates? In this paper we argue that proactive investments in switching-flexibility, e.g., to facilitate future relocations of production assets, can be a powerful tool for handling international business (IB) volatility. If options to invest in future flexibility are exercised strategically, international relocation may become a more frequent phenomenon in high than in low volatility...

摘要：Global turbulences can unexpectedly disrupt international distribution channels, making channel resilience an important issue for firms distributing internationally. The effectuation process can help, but existing means may not always fit the changing market conditions. Drawing from the entrepreneurship and international marketing literature, this study tested the idea that novelty-centered business model innovation (BMI) mediates the relationship between effectuation process and channel resil...

摘要：Despite thorough attention to how context shapes subsidiary behavior, very little IB research has explored the dynamic impact of disruptive changes in historical context on organizational innovations in MNEs. Existing IB theory has robustly theorized the growth of competence-creating subsidiaries from the 1980s to the 2000s. However, our historical research demonstrates that this body of existing theory fails to explain an equally significant growth in subsidiaries with protean competence-crea...

摘要：Traditional studies on cultural industries have emphasized localized innovation rooted in cultural products' countries of origin. While this research acknowledges the significance of production origin, the digital transformation of cultural industries has shifted the landscape of cultural product innovation from traditional localized processes to a more globalized and democratic approach by engaging users worldwide. However, there is a notable gap in understanding demand-side variations in use...

摘要：The global imperative has increased in recent years for international firms to respond to major threats such as unintended environmental, social, and economic problems arising from ecological destruction, population growth, and economic activity. To respond to this confluence that has created an emerging existential crisis, we identify that a globalizing circular economy (CE) is required and subsequently define a new construct: sustainable international business model innovations. In doing so,...

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 -...

摘要：Various policy instruments have been employed to combat international tax avoidance by multinational corporations (MNCs), with a focus on corporate tax disclosure. However, corporate tax disclosure to tax authorities alone is insufficient to address the issue. The Convention on Mutual Administrative Assistance in Tax Matters (the Convention) goes beyond tax disclosure by featuring direct international tax administrative assistance and aiming to strengthen governments' tax enforcement. Intrigue...
