Change and Continuity in Southeast Asian Ethnic Chinese Business 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
H. W. C. Yeung 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2006,23(3):229-254
The 1997/1998 Asian economic crisis has fundamentally reshaped the economic organization of ethnic Chinese business in Southeast Asia. In this paper, I outline some of the most significant contextual changes that impinge on Southeast Asian ethnic Chinese business in recent years, in particular the changing political-economic alliances in Southeast Asia, the interpenetration of globalization processes and the rise of mainland China as a significant player in the global economy. I argue that these changes have led to a more globalizing orientation of ethnic Chinese business in Southeast Asia. In making this case for globalizing ethnic Chinese business in Southeast Asia, I am concurrently aware of the continual existence and discursive reconstitution of some distinctive elements of ethnic Chinese capitalism. This continuity in ethnic Chinese capitalism points to its growing hybridization–a transformative process in which traditional and new elements are continuously morphed and recombined into something that resembles neither ethnic Chinese capitalism as we knew it nor global capitalism. Instead, a hybrid form of ethnic Chinese capitalism emerges as a distinctive feature in today's Southeast Asian business landscape.

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.

Sea-Jin Chang 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2006,23(4):407-417
Business groups played an important role in the economic development of East Asian countries. Yet business groups in East
Asia face an uncertain future. Following the Asian Crisis, foreign creditors and investors have demanded that business groups
have more transparent operations and stronger corporate governance. At the same time, as governments in East Asia have loosened
trade barriers, business groups have become subject to intense competition in domestic markets. This paper argues that business
groups can survive or even prosper by taking initiatives in corporate restructuring. This paper also highlights some areas
for further research on business groups in this region.

Indian business groups: Evolution and transformation 总被引:9,自引:8,他引:1
Ben L. Kedia Debmalya Mukherjee Somnath Lahiri 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2006,23(4):559-577
Business groups are an important constituent of many emerging economies. In this paper, we focus on the evolution and transformation
of Indian business groups (IBGs) over two economic eras — pre-reform era (pre 1991) and reform era (post 1991). To this end,
we analyze IBG behavior during these periods, and explain the implications of such behavior on IBG value creation. Our conceptualization
of IBG dynamics utilizes the perspectives of product relatedness and institutional relatedness, and undertakes a broad review of the extant literature.

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.

Regional multinationals and the Korean cosmetics industry 总被引:4,自引:1,他引:3
This paper analyzes the market penetration and expansion strategy of cosmetics and toiletries multinational enterprises (MNEs)
in South Korea from the perspective of regional strategy as developed recently by Rugman. We find that MNEs have different
market entry and expansion strategies in the home region and in the foreign region. Home region MNEs (Japanese MNEs in this
case), in general, utilize their firm-specific advantages (FSAs) better than foreign region MNEs (European and MNEs from the
Americas in this case). Due to differences in transaction costs, home region MNEs exploit downstream FSAs while foreign region
MNEs develop upstream FSAs. Market similarity also leads to a greater incentive to operate in the home region rather than
in foreign regions. The home region effect significantly increases the likelihood of entry into foreign markets as the host
country's “diamond” significantly affects the market entry strategies of MNEs.

Meyer (2006) has offered an interesting array of initiatives that scholars in Asia can pursue in enhancing their contribution
to the body of management knowledge. While the objective of his agenda seems timely and relevant, it raises some fundamental
questions that encompass issues such as the scope of research questions that Asian researchers could pursue, the debate over
rigor versus relevance, and the role of established top tier journals in furthering the Asian management research agenda.
This paper discusses some of these issues in the spirit of fostering a continued dialog on the important questions that Meyer
raises.

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.

Research rankings of Asia Pacific business schools: Global versus local knowledge strategies 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
Despite the increasing recognition of the importance of the research mission of universities, no previous work has investigated
the research productivity and research strategies of Asia Pacific business schools. This article fills this important gap
by conducting the first study to rank the publication productivity of 130 Asia Pacific business schools. Drawing on data from
the UTD Top 100 Business School Research Rankings™ and several additional sources, we rank Asia Pacific business schools’
research productivity in three areas: (1) twenty-four leading business journals, (2) seven top management journals, and (3)
five Asia Pacific management journals. We also extend this analysis by documenting the distinct publishing strategies of various
Asia Pacific business schools—global, local, or both.

As institutional transitions in emerging economies intensify, the basis for competition is theorised to move from relationship-based
to market-based. An in-depth analysis of the strategy of the Salim Group, one of the largest ethnic Chinese conglomerates
in the Asia-Pacific region, supports the view that the strategy of this conglomerate can be understood as moving between the
extremes of crony capitalism (the relationship-based model) and the existing Western norms for multinational business (the
market-based model). Both models are essential for its success, but the former, relationship-based model seems more important
in early times and the latter, market-based model becomes more significant during recent institutional changes. We also find
evidence that the strategic movement between those extremes takes the form of irregular oscillatory dynamics.

Asian contexts and the search for general theory in management research: A rejoinder 总被引:6,自引:5,他引:1
Klaus E. Meyer 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2007,24(4):527-534
“Asian Management Research Needs More Self-confidence” (Meyer, 2006) generated a surprisingly extended and diverse set of
responses from Asia and beyond. In this rejoinder, I draw together a few lines of arguments that have emerged in that debate
with the aim of moving the debate—and thus Asian management research agendas—forward. In particular, I argue that context
is a crucial variable to explain management behavior, yet for practical reasons, it has been neglected in research published
in top journals. Thus, I challenge management scholars in Asia and beyond to devise new research strategies to enhance our
understanding of the contextual boundaries of our knowledge.

The impact of state shares on corporate innovation strategy and performance in China 总被引:4,自引:2,他引:2
This paper examines the impact of state shares on corporate innovation strategy and performance in the People’s Republic of
China (PRC). Through an investigation of 541 publicly traded companies in five high-tech industries during the period between
2000 and 2005, we find that the presence of state shares have a positive effect on the corporate choice of a process innovation
strategy over a product innovation one. However, this relationship is moderated by the overall ownership concentration ratio.
Moreover, our findings suggest that companies with large state shares prefer to conduct innovations independently rather than
collaboratively with others, and they usually achieve better innovation performance. These findings indicate that the government
play a role as both an investor and a resource allocation coordinator and therefore complicate the relationship between ownership
structure and corporate innovation activities.

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.

The prevailing ownership-based theories of the firm are increasingly being challenged by new forms of organising, as exemplified
by the Asian network multinational enterprise (MNE). We believe that an institutional approach, that tries to bridge both
the macro and micro levels of analysis, and that encompasses both formal and informal institutions, offers a promising way
to advance our understanding of the different forms of the contemporary MNE. This paper introduces a theoretical framework
that draws substantially on the work of Douglass North, and examines how an institutional dimension can be incorporated into
the three components of the OLI paradigm.

It has long been recognized that there is a tradeoff between exploration and exploitation. How organizations utilize resources
across time and space will affect firm survival and growth. In this paper, we examine resource utilization and performance
implications over time in an environment undergoing fundamental institutional transformation. Based on a large archive of
Chinese government data from 1988, 1992, and 1996, the study finds that (1) the impact of resource utilization is contingent
on the degree to which different resources are committed to factors of production, (2) the impact is curvilinear and only
valid within an “optimal” range, and (3) the performance implications change over time. As firms enter later stages of the
transitional process, efficiency becomes less important as they shift their strategic focus from exploitation to exploration,
which requires more flexibility. These findings have significant bearing on the issue of upgrading technological competitiveness
in China as the country becomes increasingly integrated in the global economy. Such insights may also have implications for
other emerging economies in Asia.

Risk and capital structure in Asian project finance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Paul M. Vaaler Barclay E. James Ruth V. Aguilera 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2008,25(1):25-50
We develop and test hypotheses derived from a multi-level theoretical framework for understanding factors shaping the credit
risk and capital structure of a quintessentially Asian form of investment known as project finance. It differs from other
corporate financing approaches. A project company is separate and bankruptcy remote from the investing firm sponsors that
create it. The project company relies extensively on debt capital provided by creditors to fund project operations. Creditors
provide more (less) debt as a percentage of overall project capital when there is less (more) risk of project failure and
non-repayment. We define a target risk framework identifying country-, industry-, syndicate-, firm-, and project-related factors
shaping Asian project finance company credit risk and thus, project debt. In a sample of 238 project finance companies announced
in 13 Asian countries from 1995–2004, we observe substantial effects on project capital structure with respect to country-level
factors linked to institutional and macroeconomic theories, syndicate structure factors linked to agency theory, and lead
sponsor experience and project size factors linked to learning and transaction cost theories. We argue that these and other
determinants of project finance company credit risk and capital structure in Asia since the mid-1990s anticipate similar relationships
now emerging elsewhere around the globe.

Economic upgrading in a state-coordinated,liberal market economy 总被引:2,自引:2,他引:0
Bryan K. Ritchie 《Asia Pacific Journal of Management》2009,26(3):435-457
Well-established research into different models of capitalism has not been applied well to developing countries. Changing
global conditions, institutional differences, and path-dependent histories have forced late developing countries to create
models of their own. By and large, however, these models have been less than successful in fostering economic development
through technological upgrading. A comparison of skills upgrading in several fast-growing economies in Southeast Asia suggests
that perhaps there is a new “State Coordinated, Liberal Market Economy” developmental model that can successfully lead to
upgrading-driven economic development. This model combines elements from the Developmental State, Coordinated Market, and
Liberal Market Economy models while differing significantly from each.

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.
