Firms operating across national borders are subject to scrutiny in both home and host countries. These multiple regimes of scrutiny increase their vulnerability to legitimacy crises that can significantly impact their operations and reputations. Over the past two decades, scholars in international business (IB) have investigated socio-political legitimacy (SPL), primarily through an institutionalist lens. However, despite extensive research across IB, political science, and sociology, the literature remains fragmented, characterized by diverse theoretical frameworks and modes of inquiry. This paper seeks to synthesize these disparate perspectives and identify converging themes. Specifically, it examines legitimacy through three core dimensions: property, perception, and process. Drawing on 250 studies from IB and management, sociology, and political science journals, this integrative review offers a comprehensive understanding of SPL, highlighting key theories, themes, and methodological trends. Furthermore, it introduces a “theory-on-theory” agenda aimed at advancing legitimacy both as a unit theory and in its relative role within institutional theory as a programmatic theory. The paper lays the foundations for future theorizing and empirical research on legitimacy-building strategies across diverse institutional contexts.

跨国经营的公司在母国和东道国都要接受审查。这些多重审查制度增加了它们面对合法性危机的脆弱性，这可能严重影响它们的运营和声誉。在过去的二十年中，国际商务（IB）学者主要通过制度主义的视角研究了社会政治合法性（SPL）。然而，尽管在IB、政治学和社会学领域进行了广泛的研究，但文献仍然是碎片化的，其特点是不同的理论框架和探究模式。本文试图综合这些不同的观点，并确定趋同的主题。具体来说，它通过三个核心维度来检验合法性：属性、感知和过程。利用来自IB和管理学、社会学和政治学期刊的250项研究，这篇综合综述提供了对SPL的全面理解，突出了关键理论、主题和方法趋势。此外，它还引入了一种“理论对理论”的议程，旨在推进合法性作为一种单位理论，以及作为一种纲领性理论在制度理论中的相对作用。本文为未来对不同制度背景下的合法性建设策略进行理论和实证研究奠定了基础。

A growing tension exists between the transformative capabilities of artificial intelligence (AI), especially its generative forms, and restrictive editorial policies and social climate that hinder its adoption. While AI enables and compels scholars to reallocate intellectual resources across tasks, academic journals (and institutions) have implemented defensive guardrails that prioritize preservation. This editorial challenges such academic orthodoxy surrounding AI usage, arguing that current approaches represent a false dichotomy between authentic human scholarship and AI-assisted research. This conservative stance imposes significant opportunity costs. We propose that the international business (IB) field must embrace intellectual courage by evaluating research contributions based on their validity and significance, rather than conformity to traditional views of what constitutes authentic scholarship. Market-based forces should determine the technological evolution while maintaining accountability for outcomes. Given the choice between technological leadership and scholarly irrelevance—otherwise, progress or perish—we offer steps for the IB field to avoid becoming the latter.

人工智能（AI）的变革能力，特别是其生成形式，与阻碍其采用的限制性编辑政策和社会环境之间存在着日益紧张的关系。虽然人工智能能够并迫使学者在不同任务之间重新分配智力资源，但学术期刊（和机构）已经实施了优先考虑保存的防御护栏。这篇社论挑战了围绕人工智能使用的这种学术正统，认为目前的方法代表了真正的人类学术和人工智能辅助研究之间的错误二分法。这种保守的立场带来了巨大的机会成本。我们建议，国际商务（IB）领域必须拥抱智力勇气，根据研究成果的有效性和重要性来评估研究贡献，而不是遵从传统观点，即什么是真正的学术。市场力量应该决定技术发展，同时保持对结果的问责制。在技术领先和学术无关之间做出选择——否则，要么进步，要么灭亡——我们为IB领域提供了避免成为后者的步骤。

International business (IB) scholarship portrays internationalization as dominantly positive for individuals and organizations. We challenge this dominant view, arguing that while internationalization can generate positive economic outcomes, it often results in environmental injustice for the masses of poor individuals living in extreme poverty. Drawing on postcolonial theory, we generate three testable propositions that specifically address the colonial legacy in former colonial nations with extreme poverty; these propositions relate to these nations’ institutional void, colonizer privilege, and racial capitalism. We then generate a future research agenda at the intersection of IB, those in extreme poverty, and environmental injustice.

国际商务（IB）奖学金将国际化描述为个人和组织的主要积极因素。我们对这一主流观点提出了挑战，认为虽然国际化可以产生积极的经济成果，但它往往会导致生活在极端贫困中的穷人群体的环境不公正。根据后殖民理论，我们提出了三个可检验的命题，专门针对极端贫困的前殖民国家的殖民遗产；这些主张与这些国家的制度空虚、殖民者特权和种族资本主义有关。然后，我们在IB，极端贫困和环境不公正的交叉点上制定了未来的研究议程。

This perspective paper examines the role of Corporate Military Activities (CMA) within the field of international business, an area that has growing importance amidst escalating global geopolitical tensions. We posit that CMA is a special, acquisition-oriented subtype of Corporate Political Activities (CPA), distinct from the well-known influence-oriented tactics of CPA or constructive-oriented tactics of corporate social responsibility. CMA encompasses actions by multinational enterprises (MNEs) explicitly directed at military-industrial ecosystem to secure military-derived strategic resources for competitive advantage in global contexts. This paper identifies and discusses four key benefits of CMA for MNEs, namely the acquisition and strategic use of security assets, the leadership acquired from military in MNEs, the diffusion of military-driven technological innovations, and business expansion. We also outline the drawbacks of CMA for the MNEs and provide a structured research agenda for further inquiry, contributing to a deeper understanding of how firms can effectively integrate CMA into their strategies in a rapidly changing global environment.

这篇观点论文探讨了企业军事活动（CMA）在国际商业领域中的作用，这一领域在全球地缘政治紧张局势不断升级的背景下变得越来越重要。我们认为，CMA是一种特殊的、以获取为导向的企业政治活动（CPA）亚型，不同于众所周知的以影响力为导向的CPA策略或以建构为导向的企业社会责任策略。CMA包括跨国企业（MNEs）明确针对军事工业生态系统的行动，以确保军事衍生的战略资源在全球范围内获得竞争优势。本文确定并讨论了CMA对跨国公司的四个关键好处，即安全资产的获取和战略使用，跨国公司从军方获得的领导力，军事驱动的技术创新的扩散，以及业务扩张。我们还概述了跨国公司CMA的缺点，并为进一步调查提供了结构化的研究议程，有助于更深入地了解公司如何在快速变化的全球环境中有效地将CMA整合到其战略中。

While politics and political issues such as risk have dominated the agenda of international business (IB) since the field’s founding, appreciation for the role of political ideology is nascent. In this article, we seek to shed light on the role and impact of political ideology within multinational enterprises (MNEs) and the context in which they operate. In so doing, we aim to explore the micro-foundations of ideology within MNEs, to broaden the epistemological scope of study by incorporating cross-national ideological diversity, and to examine the complex ideological landscape confronting MNEs. In addition, we hope to demonstrate that the comparative nature of IB makes the field highly suitable for investigating political ideologies within organizations rooted in numerous contexts; to date, ideology research has primarily centered its attention on U.S. firms and the simplistic conservatism-liberalism axis. By addressing the ideological dimensions of IB in an era marked by increasing multidimensional ideological polarization worldwide, we offer novel theoretical insights for scholars seeking to understand how ideology shapes MNEs, their global strategy, operations, and their larger societal impact. We hope, therefore, to put political ideology at the forefront of the IB research agenda.

虽然自国际商务（IB）领域成立以来，政治和风险等政治问题一直主导着该领域的议程，但对政治意识形态作用的认识尚处于萌芽阶段。在本文中，我们试图阐明政治意识形态在跨国企业（MNEs）及其经营环境中的作用和影响。在此过程中，我们的目标是探索跨国公司内部意识形态的微观基础，通过纳入跨国意识形态多样性来扩大研究的认识论范围，并研究跨国公司面临的复杂意识形态景观。此外，我们希望证明IB的比较性质使该领域非常适合调查植根于众多背景的组织内的政治意识形态；迄今为止，意识形态研究主要集中在美国公司和简单的保守主义-自由主义轴心上。在全球意识形态两极分化日益严重的时代，通过解决跨国公司的意识形态维度，我们为寻求理解意识形态如何塑造跨国公司、跨国公司的全球战略、运营及其更大的社会影响的学者提供了新的理论见解。因此，我们希望将政治意识形态置于IB研究议程的首位。

This study explores the under-theorized relationship between international entrepreneurship and the likelihood of corrupt entry in the MENA region. It argues that entrepreneurs' locus of control regarding corruption may increase the likelihood of engaging in corrupt activities in a new business environment. Institutional factors such as the perceived level of corruption in the host economy also affect this relationship. The paper aims to enrich the understanding of international business by examining corruption at an individual level and to provide a nuanced view of international entrepreneurship, often viewed positively, but potentially having a darker side.

本研究探讨了中东和北非地区国际企业家精神与腐败进入可能性之间理论不足的关系。它认为，企业家对腐败的控制可能会增加在新的商业环境中从事腐败活动的可能性。制度性因素，如东道国经济的腐败程度，也会影响这种关系。这篇论文旨在通过研究个人层面的腐败来丰富对国际商业的理解，并对国际企业家精神提供细致入微的看法，通常被视为积极的，但可能有黑暗的一面。

This paper discusses the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on decision-making in multinational enterprises (MNEs) and its theoretical implications for international business (IB) research. Building on the concept of bounded rationality, we analyze how AI affects biases and heuristics that drive human decision-making and identify new, AI-specific biases that could distort decision-making outcomes in MNEs. We propose that AI-augmented decision-making will alter the behavioral assumptions underlying established IB theories, requiring a reevaluation of these theories’ boundary conditions. By addressing these shifts, the paper contributes to updating IB research to the realities of AI-augmented decision landscapes.

本文讨论了人工智能（AI）对跨国企业（MNEs）决策的影响及其对国际商务（IB）研究的理论意义。基于有限理性的概念，我们分析了人工智能如何影响驱动人类决策的偏见和启发式，并识别出可能扭曲跨国公司决策结果的新的、人工智能特定的偏见。我们提出，人工智能增强的决策将改变现有IB理论的行为假设，需要重新评估这些理论的边界条件。通过解决这些变化，本文有助于将IB研究更新为人工智能增强决策景观的现实。

Political embeddedness has been shown to influence firms’ innovation and internationalization. However, its impact on acquirers’ innovation performance following cross-border acquisitions remains underexplored. Drawing on the resource dependence theory (RDT) and the experiential learning perspective, this study investigates how political embeddedness affects innovation performance after cross-border acquisitions and examines the moderating role of firm-level experiential learning. We further argue that this moderating effect is strengthened when top management team (TMT) members possess greater international experience and cognitive diversity. Using a dataset of Chinese cross-border acquisitions between 2010 and 2020, our findings confirm that political embeddedness negatively affects post-acquisition innovation performance, but that firm- and TMT-level experiential learning jointly mitigate this effect. This study contributes to the literature by highlighting the complex nature of experiential learning as a mechanism through which politically embedded firms can improve their innovation in cross-border acquisitions.

政治嵌入性已被证明会影响企业的创新和国际化。然而，其对跨国收购后收购方创新绩效的影响仍未得到充分探讨。基于资源依赖理论和经验学习视角，本研究探讨了政治嵌入性对跨国并购后创新绩效的影响，并考察了企业层面经验学习的调节作用。我们进一步认为，当高层管理团队成员拥有更大的国际经验和认知多样性时，这种调节效应会得到加强。利用2010 - 2020年中国跨国并购数据，我们的研究结果证实了政治嵌入性对并购后创新绩效的负面影响，但企业层面和tmt层面的体验学习共同缓解了这一影响。本研究通过强调体验式学习作为一种机制的复杂性，为文献做出了贡献，通过这种机制，具有政治背景的企业可以提高其在跨境收购中的创新。

An institutional logic represents the way a particular socioeconomic world works. Building on an institutional logics approach, this paper examines how a multinational corporation balances market and social logics. Specifically, we examine an inclusive supply chain in the Mexican business unit of a leading multinational. Employing 50 indepth interviews, observations, and further secondary data, we find that while the market logic is not unexpectedly superordinate, the multinational corporation is able to manage both logics successfully through specific mechanisms beyond employing basic tradeoffs. This research contributes to understanding the management of diverging market and social logics, and adds to the theoretical understanding of inclusive supply chains, while also showing how a multinational corporation can help to address the global challenge of poverty by mobilizing an inclusive supply chain.

制度逻辑代表了特定社会经济世界的运作方式。本文从制度逻辑的角度考察跨国公司如何平衡市场逻辑和社会逻辑。具体来说，我们考察了一家领先跨国公司墨西哥业务部门的包容性供应链。通过50次深度访谈、观察和进一步的二手数据，我们发现，虽然市场逻辑并非出乎意料地优越，但跨国公司能够通过采用基本权衡之外的特定机制成功地管理这两种逻辑。本研究有助于理解分化市场和社会逻辑的管理，增加了对包容性供应链的理论理解，同时也展示了跨国公司如何通过动员包容性供应链来帮助解决全球贫困挑战。

How trade sanctions impact MNE subsidiaries in Russia: Responses to legitimacy concerns and performance 贸易制裁如何影响跨国公司在俄罗斯的子公司：对合法性问题和绩效的回应

How do MNE subsidiaries respond and perform after their home country imposes trade sanctions on the host country? To answer this research question, we apply a legitimacy lens, focus on Russia, and test four hypotheses using a dataset (1994–2022) that includes country, firm, and media data. Based on a sample of 676 MNE subsidiaries from 41 countries and text analysis of over 13,000 announcements, we find that sanctions increase subsidiaries’ stakeholder-oriented responses and negatively affect their performance. Subsidiaries with greater local experience are less likely to respond immediately, resulting in more severe performance declines compared to new entrants. Our analysis of news outlet posts further shows that negative public sentiment toward the sanctioning host country intensifies pressure on subsidiaries to respond. These findings enrich the international business literature on sanctions and contribute to ongoing scholarly discussions about the relationship between sanctions, legitimacy, and performance.

在母国对东道国实施贸易制裁后，跨国公司子公司如何应对和表现？为了回答这个研究问题，我们采用合法性视角，关注俄罗斯，并使用包含国家、公司和媒体数据的数据集（1994-2022）测试四个假设。基于来自41个国家的676家跨国公司子公司的样本和超过13,000份公告的文本分析，我们发现制裁增加了子公司以利益相关者为导向的反应，并对其绩效产生负面影响。拥有更多本地经验的子公司不太可能立即做出反应，导致与新进入者相比，业绩下滑更为严重。我们对新闻媒体帖子的分析进一步表明，公众对制裁东道国的负面情绪加剧了子公司做出回应的压力。这些发现丰富了关于制裁的国际商业文献，并有助于正在进行的关于制裁、合法性和绩效之间关系的学术讨论。
