Clearing a Path Through the Forest: A Meta-Review of Interorganizational Relationships (2011, background): “Our approach may also miss important articles that significantly affected the field and were included in reviews but were not review articles (e.g., Bradach, 1997; Lavie, 2007; Poppo & Zenger, 1998).”
Services and the Business Models of Product Firms: An Empirical Analysis of the Software Industry (2013, background): “As a result, most other software industry studies have avoided these types of accounting measures (Lavie 2007).”
Portfolios of Political Ties and Business Group Strategy in Emerging Economies (2014, positive): “This situation contrasts with strategic alliances in which partners engage in coopetition (Hamel, Doz, and Prahalad, 1989), which may compromise the focal firm’s tertius gaudens advantages (Bae and Gargiulo, 2004; Lavie, 2007).”
Diversity in Alliance Portfolios and Performance Outcomes: A Meta-Analysis (2017, result): “…of level of analysis at which performance is measured, several studies examined performance at the alliance level (e.g., Hoetker & Mellewigt, 2009; Lane, Salk, & Lyles, 2001), whereas other studies analyzed performance at the firm level (e.g., Gulati & Puranam, 2009; Lavie, 2007; Sampson, 2004).”
Domestic alliance network to attract foreign partners: Evidence from international joint ventures in China (2014, background): “A firm must make large initial investments in forming and managing the alliance network (Lavie, 2007).”
Exploring the Locus of Invention: The Dynamics of Network Communities and Firms' Invention Productivity (2014, background): “Other research suggests one possible mechanism underlying this effect: since profitable firms can have a more favorable bargaining position (Lavie, 2007), they may also be able to appropriate greater value from within-community relationships, perhaps at the expense of less successful community membe”
Value Creation through Novel Resource Configurations in a Digitally Enabled World (2017, background): “…with partners who own complementary resources, as a value-creating resource con ﬁ guration has been increasingly recognized by the received literatures on alliances (Lavie, 2007; Wassmer & Dussauge, 2011) and business ecosystems (Adner & Kapoor, 2010; Ceccagnoli, Forman, Huang, & DJ, 2012).”
Cocreation of Value in a Platform Ecosystem: The Case of Enterprise Software (2012, background): “With the exception of Lavie (2007), few have simultaneously studied value creation and value appropriation mechanisms in alliance relationships.”
Co‐opetition and Technological Innovation in Small and Medium‐Sized Enterprises: A Multilevel Conceptual Model (2009, background): “Lavie (2007) argues that bilateral competition between the firm and its partners exacerbates some of the negative effects, whereas multilateral competition among partners in the alliance portfolio attenuates them.”
The Timing of Codevelopment Alliances in New Product Development Processes: Returns for Upstream and Downstream Partners (2015, methodology): “However, in spite of joint efforts in value creation, research has examined the differential outcomes to individual partners from a bargaining power perspective, which determines the intra-alliance division of value created from collaboration (Adegbesan and Higgins 2010; Lavie 2007).”
Strategic Entrepreneurship: Creating Value for Individuals, Organizations, and Society (2011, positive): “Research indicates that a firm’s patenting strategies contribute several important outcomes to entrepreneurship, including alliance partner selection (Lavie, 2007) and IPO underpricing (Heeley, Matusik, & Jain, 2007), among others.”
Sub‐National Institutional Contingencies, Network Positions, and IJV Partner Selection (2012, positive): “For example, domestic firms may be embedded within a network of interfirm arrangements such as alliance networks (Koka and Prescott, 2008; Lavie, 2007).”
Discontinuities, competition, and cooperation: Coopetitive dynamics between incumbents and entrants (2018, background): “Relational rents, moreover, generally increase with the degree of complementarity of across the resources being shared (Lavie, 2007).”
Friends and Foes: The dynamics of dual social structures (2014, background): “This paper also contributes to studies of the connection between the social structure of markets and firm-level outcomes (Beckman & Haunschild, 2002; Lavie, 2007), and to studies of collective dynamics in organizational fields (Davis, 1991; Greve, 2009).”
