Handbook of strategic alliances

About this book

"The Handbook of Strategic Alliances covers state-of-the-art research on strategic alliances and serves to pave the road for future alliance research. Leading scholars and practitioners from around the globe chart the alliance literature, its evolution, current state, and future course. An in-depth look at cross-border alliances is examined; followed by an examination of new alliance forms in the new economy, entrepreneurial networks, and collaborations between for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. The Handbook concludes with the examination of methodological issues addressing the prospect for interdisciplinary research." "The introduction of theory interfaces, empirical challenges, unconventional methodologies, and "black box" phenomena are what makes Handbook of Strategic Alliances the perfect resource for students and professionals in the areas of Management, Strategy, International Business, Organization Behavior / Human Resource Management, Economics, and Sociology."--Jacket.
