Strategic group literature has generated a significant amount of research over recent decades. However, the rivalry implications
of strategic group have remained unclear. This paper analyses rivalry and strategic groups in the house building industry
in a small town from a cognitive approach. We consider rivalry as a subjective and directional phenomenon. Estimating rivalry
as the direct identification of competitors we try to explain whether similarity affects rivalry and what factors make a company
a “rival”. Results show that perceived rivalry is strongly related to size, past performance, subjective similarity and strategic
group structure.

Is the German system of corporate governance converging towards the Anglo-American model? 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
This paper analyses whether the German corporate governance is converging towards Anglo-American practices. We summarise the
extant empirical evidence on the various governance mechanisms that economic theory suggests ensure efficiency and describe
recent legal developments. We find no clear signs of convergence in form, i.e. the main distinctive features of the German system have remained largely unaltered. However, changes occurred over
the last decade (specially in the legal framework) suggest a certain convergence in function, i.e. some governance mechanisms have effectively incorporated aims and/or goals generally associated with the Anglo-American
model.

Mario Benassi 《Journal of Management and Governance》2009,13(3):163-192
This paper explores a new organizational form—modular organization—through a case-study approach. The aim is to isolate the
specific properties that set this form apart from other known organizational forms. The case studies examined focus on the
manufacturing process of small, medium and large companies in different industries, and provide a clear picture of modular
organization. The analysis shows that modular organizations are an innovation per se and not the mere outcome of modular products.
Modular organizations leverage decomposition by employing small units within a larger organization. Each unit is responsible
for a specific domain, it is quasi-independent and makes autonomous decisions on various business issues. Modular organizations
deal with suppliers directly, and are characterized by a flat structure. Companies based on modular organization can improve
their efficiency in the high-tech and mature markets, and fully exploit their resources.

Using a dynamic heterogeneous panel data model, we examine the relationship between firm-specific resources (corporate management
capabilities, employee value-added and technological competence) and firm-specific profitability and the potential moderating
effects of industry characteristics on this relationship. We find that firm-specific resources enhance both accounting-based
measures (return on assets and return on sales) and market-based measure (Tobin’s q) of firm-specific performance. Moreover, industry characteristics moderate the relationship between firm-specific resources
and firm-specific profitability. Managerial implications are discussed.

This paper presents evidence that corporate governance quality measured by (1) the board size and (2) the fraction of directors
that serve on more corporate boards, influences the market value of firms. The analysis is based in Italy, a country that
is characterized by family and concentrated ownership, low legal protection of investors and pyramidal firm structures. Our
empirical results suggest that the level of ‘busy-ness’ of corporate directors as a measure of board effectiveness has a significant
influence on firm’s market performance. By contrast, we find limited evidence that board size has a substantial impact on
the market valuation, except in small and medium enterprises and in some specific industry sectors.

It is an occupational hazard in the study of organizations that we tend to view them as static arrangements, as though what
is observed and reported today tells us all we need to know about them. But organizations are dynamic rather than static phenomena,
being constantly affected by adjustments to meet the effects of fading past arrangements or approaching new arrangements.
Simple “snapshots” taken at a particular moment in history are never likely to reveal all the relevant nuances. This article
comments on this problem as it affects non-departmental public bodies often described loosely as “agencies”, by (a) drawing
attention to some relevant theoretical contributions to the political science and organization theory literature, and (b)
giving some examples of changes in the style of agency formation and operation over the years, mostly drawn from the Australian
public sector.

The connection between “schools” of study focusing on crises and on natural disasters is explored. After considering the rise
of separate schools, the article notes significant attempts to integrate them and suggests that, while natural disasters and
other big crises have much in common, there are still some important differences that need to be taken into account in designing
relevant management systems. Drawing particularly on Australian wildfire experience, the article then looks more briefly at
the question of political leadership in disaster situations, and at serious problems that often occur in the reporting of
those situations.

We use time-series cross-section analysis to provide empirical validation for the existence of a specific American ethos and
a specific European ethos with respect to economic policy. In our innovation, economic policy is proxied by “economic freedom”
from the Fraser Institute database and constitutional “political institutions” are proxied by variables from the Database
of Political Institutions (from the World Bank). Our results suggest that, once we control for political and institutional
differences, the United States and Europe still pursue different economic policies.

The paper attempts to analyze the consequences of political pressure placed on the Public Service Commission (PSC) of Bangladesh.
Through extensive literature review and empirical research, the authors conclude that the independence, efficiency and effectiveness
of the PSC largely depend on the politics–administration relationship. Furthermore, this relationship is affected by regime
types and it regulates the optimum functioning or malfunctioning of the institution.

The ability of public organizations to invest in emerging technologies is dependent upon the degree to which they can effectively
manage the risks of being a lead-user in a political environment. However, little is known about the dimensions and implications
of the different forms of risk faced by innovative public organizations as well as the strategies employed to manage them.
This paper addresses these issues by studying how one public agency implements a program of replacing its transportation fleet
with alternative fuel vehicles (AFVs).

This article examines the effect on market valuation of both corporate governance and the diversity of activities conducted
by GCC commercial banks. It shows evidence on the endogenous effect of corporate governance and the characteristics of the
banking industry in determining the diversification level of a bank. Empirical findings show a bias in results using ordinary
least squares regressions. When controlled for endogeneity, they indicate a negative (but weak) association between the diversification
index and the market valuation—consistent with the agency-based hypothesis. Interestingly, foreign banks and corporate shareholders
are effective monitors who invest in more diversified GCC banks with higher valuation multiples. Conversely, domestic corporate
shareholders—related by a complex web of relationships—invest in less diversified banks with a lower market valuation. In
addition, diversified commercial banks with either subsidiaries in developed countries or involvement in market-based activities
have higher market valuation. The latter may be explained by the effect on performance of the recent bubble in the Arab stock
market.

This paper intends to show both that a reform of the WTO is severely needed in order to establish a fairer international trade
order but also that it is possible. The first section of this paper analyzes the functioning and the most controversial rules
of the organization. The second and third sections intend to look for current opportunities of reforming the WTO by analyzing
the main existing critical responses to the institution’s deficiencies—namely coalitions of southern Nation-States and global
civil society movements—and their potential to achieve some change. It is concluded that these two key group actors, while
playing different roles, do have common goals on selected issues of international trade and if so, their combined negotiating
power is considerably increased for achieving a progress in the direction of a positive reform of the WTO for the developing
world.

between decentralization, participation and pro-poor policy outcomes. This article introduces two cases of decentralized city
governments in the Philippines: one employs radical forms of civil participation, while the other introduces modest ones,
but both of them have been successfully launching pro-poor policies. Through referring these contrasting cases to a “participatory
governance” model and a “governance with trusts” model, the paper argues that the approach to local governance is not linear.

The purpose of this essay is to briefly review the pillars and the rationale of Giddens’ theory of structuration, and offer
a snapshot of the impact of these ideas on research in management accounting. Conceptualised as a way of making sense of social
life, structuration theory represents a sensitizing device for researchers, which has be drawn upon “in a selective way in
thinking about research questions or interpreting findings” (Giddens, Modernity and self-identity: Self and society in the
late modern age, 1991). In the following pages the duality of structure, the modalities of structuration, the concept of double
positioning, the theory of the subject as well as concepts such as ontological security, routines or trust will be reviewed
as essential elements of a vocabulary originally framed within Giddens’ The constitution of society (1984). The essay ends
sketching the work of Macintosh and Scapens (Management accounting and control systems—an organisational and behavioural approach,
1990), who broke new ground to interpret management accounting systems in light of structuration theory terms and concepts,
as well as some of the more recent works in accounting that have built on Giddens’ latest ideas on the The Consequences of
Modernity (1990).

This article compares how local public administrators and executive directors of community-based housing organizations (CBHO)
perceive nonprofit funding decisions. The article’s findings suggest that both groups shared perceptions about the scope of
affordable housing and factors influencing its funding. Yet, important differences existed. Public administrators were ambivalent
about nonprofit capacity and affordable housing outcomes. They also underestimated the importance of networks, partnerships,
and minority leadership. Professionals in the nonprofit sector underestimated fair housing concerns and overestimated the
importance of promoting homeownership. These insights improve our understanding of the connection between funding patterns,
public-nonprofit sector relations, local governance, and administrative structures.

Increasing globalization is driving an increase in diversity and interaction. A more mobile and international workforce frequently
requires that individuals try to understand the norms of their “new” society. This paper provides a preliminary exploration
of the types of issues and concerns raised by expatriates working in a new foreign environment. In particular, the paper uses
a hybrid survey/interview methodology to identify specific issues raised by expatriates working in Kazakhstan, Central Asia.

We investigate the role played by a firm’s corporate governance framework in the decision to voluntarily disclose forward-looking
information in the published financial reports of Australian companies in 2000 and 2002. With respect to the year 2000, the
corporate governance category, audit quality, consisting of the presence and independence of the audit committee, its meeting frequency, the use of a big 6 auditor and
the auditor’s independence, is positively associated with the disclosure of forward-looking information. The corporate governance
category, board committees, consisting of the appointment and independence of a compensation committee and the creation of a nomination committee, and
the overall efficacy of the corporate governance system are also positively associated with the disclosure of forward-looking information. However, corporate disclosure does not
seem to be driven by the same factors in 2002 since in that year none of the governance categories is significantly associated
with the firm’s decision to publish forward-looking information in financial reports.
