  摘要：We show how the initial subnational entry location of foreign multinational enterprises (MNEs) in China influences their subsequent within-country location choices and expansion speed. We distinguish between MNEs that establish their first subsidiary in co-ethnic cores - dense agglomerations of other firms from the same country of origin - and MNEs that locate their first subsidiary in the periphery, i.e., outside of these co-ethnic cores. To identify co-ethnic cores in China, we employ a geo-...

  摘要：The existing literature is ambiguous on how exchange hazards influence interfirm governance. Drawing on institutional theory, this study revisits this relationship by examining the moderating effects of national culture. By meta-analyzing 167 articles involving 38,183 interfirm relationships in 35 countries, we found support for the moderating effects of three facets of national culture: collectivism, power distance, and uncertainty avoidance. We discuss the implications of the findings for th...
• An institutional logics approach to liability of foreignness: The case of mining MNEs in Sub-Saharan Africa AI翻译

  摘要：Prior research on firms' liability of foreignness (LOF) has emphasized the role of isomorphic behavior in overcoming LOF. However, the literature has not adequately considered how firms can overcome LOF under conditions of institutional complexity, when fundamental differences in firms' home and host country values, beliefs, and rules may make isomorphic behaviors impossible or undesirable. In this article, we use the emerging research on institutional logics and institutional entrepreneurship...
• Internal embeddedness, geographic distance, and global knowledge sourcing by overseas subsidiaries AI翻译

  摘要：We investigate determinants of global knowledge sourcing of overseas R&D subsidiaries, shedding light on vertical cross-border embeddedness within firms. Drawing on the paradox of embeddedness perspective, which assumes that embeddedness may facilitate or hinder knowledge transfer, we examine the extent to which different types of internal vertical embeddedness administrative versus knowledge - facilitate global knowledge sourcing. We find that vertical administrative embeddedness inhibits glo...
• Does hometown advantage matter? The case of institutional blockholder monitoring on earnings management in Korea AI翻译

  摘要：This study uses a large sample of Korean firms to examine institutional blockholders' influence on corporate earnings management. The Korean market is an interesting setting to study institutional monitoring because it is dominated by chaebols, which are characterized by ineffective internal governance mechanisms. We find evidence that institutional blockholders deter opportunistic financial reporting, and such activities are the most evident among domestic institutional blockholders. Foreign ...

• Country familiarity in the initial stage of foreign market selection AI翻译

  摘要：Focusing on the initial stage of foreign market selection (i.e., narrowing a set of potential countries from which to make a final choice), we theorize that manager's country familiarity influences both the decision-making process and outcome. We hypothesize that with increasing country familiarity, (a) manager investment of cognitive effort (process) first increases and then decreases, and (b) the likelihood of a country being included for further consideration (outcome) also increases and th...
• Becoming a multinational enterprise: Using industry recipes to achieve rapid multinationalization AI翻译

  摘要：We aim to build a greater understanding of how young entrepreneurial firms internationalize fast through foreign subsidiaries to become a multinational enterprise (MNE). Despite the prevalence of fast-paced international expansion, theory development on how it is achieved through high-commitment entry modes has been scarce. Our work substantially addresses this gap by conceptualizing how rapid multinationalization occurs. Using qualitative case studies, we explore eight young entrepreneurial f...
• The making of a construct: Lessons from 30 years of the Kogut and Singh cultural distance index AI翻译

  摘要：The 30-year anniversary of Kogut and Singh's (1988) groundbreaking study that introduced the concept of cultural distance and its accompanying measure provides the opportunity to take stock of what makes for a good construct. We organize our discussion around the issues of concept, algorithm, and data to clarify and gauge their contribution, before highlighting the impact of their work more generally. Many of the challenges raised by critical observers focus on one of these three dimensions. A...
• Explaining the effect of rapid internationalization on horizontal foreign divestment in the retail sector: An extended Penrosean perspective AI翻译

  摘要：We adopt a Penrosean perspective to study the effect of rapid international expansion on the subsequent divestment of international operations. We draw on regional strategy theory and differentiate Penrosean managerial resources by their geographical fungibility to argue that the effect of rapid international expansion on the divestment of international operations varies with the regional patterns of firms' international expansion and international experience. We test our hypotheses using two-...
