研究对家族企业中的家族社会资本进行了分类学分析,识别出三种类型(工具型、可识别型、不可区分型),并探讨了它们对经济和非经济结果的影响,有助于理解家族企业的异质性。
The unique form of social capital among family involved in the business, or family social capital (FSC), has both positive and negative effects on the family firm. To better understand how FSC exists across family firms and advance related theory, we develop a taxonomy of FSC. Using configuration analyses on two samples of family firms, we find that three clusters of family firms exist, which include firms with Instrumental, Identifiable, and Indistinguishable FSC. The specific configurations of each cluster are noted, and effects on economic and noneconomic outcomes are identified to advance understanding of the heterogeneous nature of family firms.
