The Dynamics of Alliance Conditions in the Alliance Development Process
研究了战略联盟在不同发展阶段中联盟条件如何变化，以及联盟与伙伴企业之间的共同演化动态，提出了一个整合过程模型。
One of the key issues in understanding the developmental processes of strategic alliances is how the alliance conditions change over the different stages of alliance development. A related question concerns the nature of the co‐evolutionary dynamics of alliances in terms of their constituent partner firms. In this article we propose an integrated process model of alliances that is based on alliance conditions, allianc developmental stages, and an alliance system comprising co‐evolutionary elements. We suggest that alliance conditions, or the key characteristics of an alliance at any given moment, link the alliance environment (firm characteristics) and the alliance development process. We also explore how specific patterns of alliance conditions have differential impacts on the interactive elements of the alliance co‐evolutionary system.
