Invited Editorial: Building a Bridge Between Resource Acquisition and Resource Accumulation
这篇社论指出资源基础理论中资源获取与内部积累两种机制常被分开研究，提出将二者结合能更完整解释企业异质性资源地位的形成，对战略管理学者有启发。
Resource-based theory (RBT) has become one of the dominant perspectives in strategic management, and a very large body of work has developed; yet, there are aspects of RBT that remain underexplored and less developed than others. One of these aspects concerns how the heterogeneous resource positions that lie at the core of RBT come to exist. Two separate mechanisms have been described in the literature—resource acquisition in strategic factor markets and internal resource accumulation. The authors propose that considering these mechanisms jointly can generate insights and lay the groundwork for future work, and they discuss several issues that are critical to developing a more complete theoretical and practical understanding of the creation of heterogeneous resource positions.
