| Abstract: | The paper investigates implications of different theoretical models for hierarchical structure. A sample of 6,578 firms in the Brazilian manufacturing industry is considered and explanatory factors pertaining to structural characteristics, network technology, technological innovations, managerial innovations and incentive mechanisms are investigated. Important joint effects are detected for all groups of variables in partial contrast with the related previous literature. Moreover, one detects significant joint effect of the newly considered group of incentive variables. The evidence in terms of individual effects is largely consistent with the predicted effects from the theoretical literature. |
