Research Note: Research in Arab Countries, Published in Arabic
这篇研究笔记总结了以阿拉伯语发表的管理与组织研究成果，并与英文文献对比，发现阿拉伯组织存在过度集权和强调控制的特点，但领导风格结论矛盾，呼吁更多方法论严谨的研究。
The major objectives of this research note are to present a concise summary of research results on management and organization published in Arabic and to compare these results with findings on the same topics published in English. An extensive search of the relevant literature in Arabic produced relatively few empirical studies. Results of these exploratory studies identify the salient features of Arab organizations and management such as overcentralization and emphasis on control. However, results on the leadership style of Arab managers are con flicting. The resort to cultural factors to explain these inconsistent findings is criticized and the need for more and methodologically-sound research is stressed.
