Change and continuity in Japanese corporate governance 总被引:7,自引:5,他引:2
Previous studies on Japanese corporate governance were largely based on the agency theory framework, and can be seen as attempts
to understand the unique monitoring mechanisms in the Japanese context. This paper briefly reviews prior research and then
discusses the recent changes in the environment that have been affecting Japanese corporate governance. Our central argument
is that there is both change and continuity in Japanese Corporate Governance. We also present emerging research from an institutional
theory perspective. In this line of research, corporate governance is treated as part of a nation’s institutional framework
and hence, researchers need to understand unique institutional arrangements that affect corporate governance practices and
their change or continuity.

Knowledge management and innovation strategy in the Asia Pacific: Toward an institution-based view 总被引:6,自引:6,他引:0
The emergence of knowledge-intensive society has changed the nature of business competition. Knowledge management becomes
an important managerial task and formulating a sound innovation strategy is an integral part of strategic management. Adopting
an institution-based view, this article argues that the institutional environment in the Asia Pacific region plays a multi-faceted
role behind firms’ knowledge management and innovation strategy. Specifically, institutions impose rules for legitimacy, serve
as a source of knowledge, and allocate incentives and resources for innovation. We believe that future research drawing on
the institution-based view has significant potential to advance our understanding of knowledge management and innovation strategy
in Asia Pacific firms.

Venture capital in China: Past,present, and future 总被引:8,自引:6,他引:2
This article reviews the literature on venture capital in China and examines where China’s venture capital industry has been
and where it is likely to go in the future. Since the 1980s, venture capital in China has grown steadily alongside the robust
national economy. The future is likely to offer even greater opportunities, as entrepreneurs are encouraged and property rights
improve. However, there will also be a period of transition as the market continues to mature and as new legal structures
and commercial arrangements emerge. Venture capital in China has many interesting differences from that in Western countries.
The venture capital industry is shaped by the institutional context and China is no exception to this. This article also examines
some specific differences between the system in China and that of the United States. Future prospects for venture capital
are also appraised as China continues its transition to a market economy.

Asli M. Colpan 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2008,25(4):635-665
This study examines the dynamic relationships between product and international diversification, keiretsu financing, and economic
performance of the listed firms in Japan’s textile industry. Panel data analysis shows that the performance effects of those
strategic factors are contingent on macroeconomic environments, rather than showing consistent relationships. The potentially
positive or negative effects of particular diversification strategies and keiretsu financing are neutralized in the munificent
environments, as exogenous macroeconomic factors overwhelm endogenous decision-making by the management. In the scarce setting,
by contrast, it is those strategic factors that influence financial outcomes. Keiretsu financing moderates the relationship
between international diversification strategy and profitability positively only during times of economic scarcity.

Varieties of export-oriented entrepreneurship in Asia 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
This paper explores differences in the proportion of export-oriented early-stage entrepreneurial activity in 12 Asian countries.
Drawing on varieties of capitalism theory, we find that Asian countries with high quality institutions are more likely to
have higher proportions of young export-oriented firms. However, analysis on a 51 country data set indicates that Asian countries
have significantly fewer young export-oriented firms than do non-Asian countries. Furthermore, the multi-country study reveals
that countries with higher proportions of export-oriented entrepreneurial activity tend to have flexible industrial relations,
high quality vocational training, and confrontational labor–employer relations, however the proportion of export-oriented
new ventures is not related to the quality of corporate governance and inter-firm relations.

Our study investigates the effect of Japanese horizontal keiretsu group membership on firm risk and return. Like prior studies,
our results show that horizontal keiretsu membership has a negative effect on firm profitability. However, we find that horizontal
keiretsu networks are likely to increase the gap between targeted and realized returns, which we call the outcome–aspiration gap. Moreover, in contrast to prior studies, our results indicate that keiretsu membership does not enable member firms to reduce
risks by smoothing profitability. Instead, our findings provide evidence that is counter to the conventional notion that Japanese
horizontal keiretsu allows their member firms to trade off profits for reduced risk.

The regional character of Asian multinational enterprises 总被引:10,自引:6,他引:4
In recent issues of this Journal a debate has raged concerning the appropriate nature of academic research in the Asia Pacific region. While we support the
desire for both rigor and regional relevance in this research, we wish to demonstrate a strong commonality between the performance
of large Asian firms and others from Europe and North America. This prompts us to question the need for a new theory of the
MNE based on the experience of Asian firms. Like their counterparts elsewhere, the large Asian firms mostly operate on an
intra-regional basis. While in the literature it has been assumed that the path to success for Asian firms is globalization,
we show that the data supporting this is confined to a handful of unrepresentative case studies. We also present a bibliometric
analysis which shows an overwhelming case study sample selection bias in academic studies towards this small number of unrepresentative
cases.

The first decade of the Asia Academy of Management 总被引:5,自引:5,他引:0
Chung-Ming Lau 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(4):401-410
This paper briefly reviews the history of the Asia Academy of Management, the official sponsor of the Asia Pacific Journal of Management. It is suggested that establishing the Asia Academy of Management is a response to the new challenges of the academic institutional
environment, both in Asia and in the mainstream management research community. Judging from the achievements in terms of reputation
in the region, publication citations, school rankings, and internal organizational development, this new venture has added
significant value to the global academic community. The challenges facing the Asia Academy, however, include the need to attract
more interested parties to actively involve in its activities, more genuine cooperation among Asian and non-Asian institutions,
and a need to affirm the contributions of Asian management studies.

Adoption of professional management in Chinese family business: A multilevel analysis of impetuses and impediments 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
Building upon the market, institutional, and cultural perspectives, this paper identifies the major impetuses and impediments
that affect the professionalization of Chinese family business at the environment, firm, and owner levels. Our integrative
framework projects that whether a family business owner will adopt professional managers is largely determined by the relative
strength of impetus factors and impediment factors. We then discuss the possible governance choices under different configuration
of impetuses and impediments. This theoretical framework is expected to help set the momentum for further conceptual exploration
and empirical study in this area.

This study adopted a structural approach to examine the formation and characteristics of Chinese business networks via interlocking
directorates during a stage in China’s institutional transitions. Analyses of the network structures of 949 listed companies
revealed that: (1) Chinese business networks were smaller in scale and lower in density than their Western counterparts; (2)
no nationwide network with a dominant center existed; (3) interlock occurred mainly in the form of smaller business groups
which tended to be regionally fragmented; (4) ties were more prevalent among industrial peers than with financial institutions;
and (5) government ownership was predominant. These findings therefore deepen our understanding about the pattern and extent
of business interlock in China. Not only do these findings provide substantive implications to the notion and dimensionality
of guanxi, but they also offer inspiration to managers and policy makers by illuminating key characteristics of network structure.
Laying these foundations shall pave the way for future research in the structure of Chinese business networks.

Real options and MNE strategies in Asia Pacific 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Asia Pacific offers a lot of promising growth opportunities, but it also presents high levels of uncertainty for multinational
enterprises (MNEs). In this paper, we introduce real options theory as a theory of investment under uncertainty, and we discuss
its implications for MNEs and their strategies with a focus on the emerging economies in Asia Pacific. We suggest that MNEs
must recognize the various sources of uncertainty, as well as the various options embedded in their investments, and real
options theory can help them structure and design their investments to benefit from uncertainty. In particular, MNEs need
to develop the dynamic capabilities of managing real options in their investments to respond to the evolving economic and
institutional environment in the region. This paper also provides several implications for policy makers in Asia Pacific to
stimulate investment activities in the region and to help their firms venture successfully in the international market place.

This commentary on Klaus Meyer’s article, “Asian Management Research Needs More Self-confidence,” in the Asia Pacific Journal of Management (2006), discusses the need for Asian management research to look beyond the pressures for publication in top-tier, Western
scholarly academic journals. We reflect on our nearly two decades of research on Russian management to illustrate many of
Meyer’s ideas and insights in a different transition economy. We support his call for more context-specific research that
can also offer contributions to global management knowledge as well as indigenous management practice.

This paper introduces competitive dynamics research, a body of work that has emerged in the strategic management field over
the last two decades. I will focus on my scholarly pursuit—both the substance and the process—during the early years of my
faculty career. I will use my twelve core publications written during this period to outline the entire research program,
highlight the makeup of each of the four sub-streams of the program, and show how these streams are linked. I will also share
my personal learning in the process of building this research program. The paper aims to convey some firsthand experience
for researchers and scholars, especially those starting in their careers and international scholars who are interested in
publishing in major U.S.-based journals, so they can construct their own research programs and cope with the manifold process
challenges in research and publishing.

Drawing from transaction cost economics and strategic management, this paper develops a series of propositions that link market
failure with corporate strategy. In doing so, the paper focuses on both vertical and horizontal strategies as strategic approaches
that could be used to address different types of market failure. The significant contribution of the paper lies in its deconstruction
of the various types of market failure and developing a theoretically grounded set of propositions that identifies appropriate
corporate strategic responses that can be used to ameliorate the negative consequences of each type of failure. In doing so
it also explores the evolution of business groups and the viability of strategic choices that groups are likely to make as
they navigate the emerging market terrain.

The growth of outward investment from China has generated expressions of concern from policymakers in the United States regarding
the economic and national security impacts of such investments. While inward foreign direct investment (FDI) has come to be
viewed by most observers as generally imparting net economic benefits to the host economy, acquisitions of US companies by
Chinese multinational companies (MNCs) have been criticized on several grounds. One is based on the mode of entry itself:
some critics believe that entry by acquisition brings lower benefits than greenfield entry. A second and more prominent concern
is that acquisitions of US companies by Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) may be motivated by non-commercial objectives
which, in turn, make those acquisitions of questionable value to the host economy. In this paper, we argue that Chinese FDI
in the United States is more likely to take the form of acquisitions than greenfield investments for the foreseeable future.
However, there is no strong case to be made that the host country economic benefits from Chinese FDI would be larger if entry
took place primarily through greenfield investments. Furthermore, most of the alleged costs to the US economy from inward
FDI from China are either unlikely to occur or are already anticipated by existing US laws and regulations, thus necessitating
no additional, specific legislation.

Asia’s national innovation systems: Institutional adaptability and rigidity in the face of global innovation challenges 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
Mark Dodgson 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2009,26(3):589-609
This paper explores several features of, and changes in, innovation capacity in Asia. The growth of technology-based industries
has been a critically important element of Asian industrial development and has required extensive institutional support for
the diffusion of innovation and technological learning. As a number of Asian countries reach the global technological frontier
they need to develop new capabilities for creating “radical” innovations in order to sustain their international competitiveness.
Using the analytical frameworks of national innovation systems and varieties of capitalism, the paper reviews some systemic
and environmental factors encouraging and constraining these developments. By referring to illustrative case studies of institutional
evolution within Taiwan’s national innovation system and technological entrepreneurship in Korea, the paper argues that whilst
there are major developments in models of innovation support, emulating those found in liberal market economies, enduring
cultural legacies can remain influential. It highlights the central importance of social as well as economic institutional
adaptation. Some management and policy implications of this attribute are considered, and a future research agenda is proposed.

A growing number of Western-educated management PhD graduates are starting their academic career in Chinese business schools.
While opportunities are abundant for these returnees, they also face the choice between developing internationally transferable
assets and building locally embedded competences. Some possible solutions are discussed, at both personal and institutional
levels.

Meta-analyzing ownership concentration and firm performance in Asia: Towards a more fine-grained understanding 总被引:11,自引:11,他引:0
Pursey?P.?M.?A.?R.?Heugens Marc?van?Essen J.? van?Oosterhout 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2009,26(3):481-512
We present a meta-analysis of the relationship between concentrated ownership and firm financial performance in Asia. At the
cross-national level of analysis, we find a small but significant positive association between both variables. This finding
suggests that in regions with less than perfect legal protection of minority shareholders, ownership concentration is an efficient
corporate governance strategy. Yet, a focus on this aggregate effect alone conceals the existence of true heterogeneity in
the effect size distribution. We purposefully model this heterogeneity by exploring moderating effects at the levels of owner
identity and national institutions. Regarding owner identity, we find that our focal relationship is stronger for foreign
than for domestic owners, and that pure “market” investors outperform “stable” or “inside” owners whom are multiply tied to
the firm. Regarding institutions, we find that a certain threshold level of institutional development is necessary to make
concentrated ownership an effective corporate governance strategy. Yet we also find that strong legal protection of shareholders
makes ownership concentration inconsequential and therefore redundant. Finally, in jurisdictions where owners can easily extract
private benefits from the corporations they control, the focal relationship becomes weaker, presumably due to minority shareholder
expropriation.

This commentary evaluates the problems associated with creating rankings of individuals and institutions in International
Business. It argues that the many—potentially arbitrary—decisions involved make the creation of rankings a hazardous affair.
I would like to thank the APJM Editor-in-Chief Mike Peng for inviting me to write this commentary, Shichun Xu, Goksel Yalcinkaya and Steven Seggie for providing
me with the impetus to articulate some concerns that have been growing in my mind in the past years, and David Griffith for
kindly responding to my email when I raised some of the concerns in this commentary. For a full discussion of the broader
issue of academics rankings and evaluation, see “Everyone can be a winner: The sense and nonsense of academic rankings” [pending

In search of confidence: Context,collaboration, and constraints 总被引:7,自引:7,他引:0
The development of any field of scientific inquiry involves global scholarly conversations. While we agree with Meyer’s (2006)
key tenets, we extend his discussion of Asia management scholars’ need for self-confidence by exploring the role of context,
collaboration, and constraints in global scholarly discourse. In particular, we highlight the need for consideration of multi-level
context, the development of theories that are good for local stakeholders’ management practice and technology-facilitated
and super-institutional collaboration. We illustrate our arguments for the development, legitimization, and institutionalization
of Asia Pacific management research with examples from management and other scholarly disciplines in Australia, China, Europe,
and North America.
