External Crises and Family Social Capital Reconfiguration: Insights From the European Debt Crisis and the Covid-19 Pandemic
基于对塞浦路斯23家家族企业的62次访谈,研究了2013-2018年欧元区债务危机和新冠疫情期间家族社会资本为何及如何重构以支持企业生存,揭示了心理和情境机制。
Drawing on 62 interviews with 23 family businesses in Cyprus concerning the 2013–2018 (Eurozone) debt crisis and the Covid-19 pandemic, this study offers new knowledge on why and how family social capital reconfigures during external crises to support survivability. The findings reveal new psychological and situational mechanisms motivating structural and relational changes in family social capital during crises. However, we find nuances and complexities acting on the motives and content of these changes, attuned to the type of external crisis that the family business faces. We contribute a context-sensitive theory of family social capital’s reconfiguration during external crises.
