Global, Local, or Regional? The Locus of MNE Strategies
梳理了区域战略文献的核心观点,提出将区域作为国家与全球之外的第三个地理分析层次,并呼吁重新思考国际战略的主流理论,如内部化理论和I-NR框架。
Abstract This paper provides an overview of the main insights arising from the ‘regional strategy’ literature. It also develops the contours of a new, rich research agenda for future international strategy scholarship, whereby the region should be introduced as an explicit, third geographic level of analysis, in addition to the country‐level and the global level. Regional strategy analysis requires a fundamental rethink of mainstream theories in the international strategy sphere. This rethink involves, inter alia , internalization theory, with its resource‐based view and transaction cost economics components, as well as the integration (I) – national responsiveness (NR) framework.
