This month, we are highlighting the paper by Stephanie Moura, Christian Daniel Falaster and Thomas C. L. on "Knowledge exploration in cross-border acquisitions: how does absorptive capacity matter?" as part of our spotlight series. emerald.com/insight/content/…
This study explores how the absorptive capacity of emerging market multinationals (EMNEs) facilitates increased acquirer performance in industry exploration and technology exploration cross-border acquisitions (CBAs) in the context of Brazilian EMNEs and their CBAs.
This week, we are highlighting the recent paper by Mihailova, Tahvanainen and Jouni Pykäläinen entitled "A co-evolutionary approach to MNE-assisted industry development: Uruguay’s forest-based pulp sector" emerald.com/insight/content/…
In a historical case study of Uruguay’s forest-based pulp sector during the 1970s to 2023, the authors analyze data from interviews with local industry actors and from company archives, academic publications and public environmental organizations.
This study aims to investigate how co-evolutionary interactions between multinational enterprises (MNEs) and local actors shaped resource-intensive industry development over several decades, examining the economic, industrial and social implications of these interactions.
This week, we are highlighting the recent article by Dinesh Hasija, Mirzokhidjon Abdurakhmonov, Lee Warren Brown and Ru-Shiun Liou, Ph.D. entitled Indirect corporate political strategy in cross-border acquisitions: influence of political affinity on target-dependent firm lobbying
The findings shows that acquiring MNEs grappling with heightened legitimacy issues due to low political affinity between the involved countries are more inclined to leverage target firms for effective lobbying resources. emerald.com/insight/content/…
The authors expand research into the dynamics of indirect and collective forms of corporate political activities (CPA), particularly focusing on multinational enterprises (MNEs) originating from countries with low political affinity with the host country and its allies
