A resource-based theory of sustainable rents
评论Conner(1991)对资源基础理论与产业组织经济学五大学派的历史比较，提出三点回应：该区分并非核心、忽视机会主义问题有风险、以及两理论间异同的替代观点。
This paper summarizes and comments on Conner (1991) that contributes to the strategic management area by providing an historical comparison of resource-based theory and five schools of thought within industrial organization economics. Conner (1991) argues that the fundamental distinction between resource-based theory and transaction costs theory is that resource-based theory focuses on the deployment and combination of specific inputs while transaction costs theory focuses on the avoidance of opportunism. I offer three responses to this claim. First, Conner’s distinction was not central to the resource-based literature at the time the article was published. Second, I raise concerns about building a resource-based theory of the firm that assumes away the problems of opportunistic behavior. Third, I offer an alternative view of the fundamental similarities and differences between resource-based theory and transaction costs theory.
