Foreign Location Choice: Review and Extensions (2016, unknown): “…regions, i.e. supranational groupings of proximate nation-states, has long been acknowledged in IB literature (Hoffman 1987; Morrison 1991; Ronen and Shenkar 1985), yet the first systematic treatment of this topic is credited to Alan Rugman and his colleagues (Rugman 2005; Rugman and Verbeke 2004).”
A perspective on multinational enterprises and climate change: Learning from “an inconvenient truth”? (2008, background): “Depending on the precise impact of climate change, it may induce an MNE to develop FSAs related to upstream activities for production, R&D, and sourcing of raw materials, capital and labor (Rugman & Verbeke, 2004; Rugman, 2005).”
Institutional and transaction cost influences on MNEs' ownership strategies of their affiliates: Evidence from an emerging market (2007, background): “In a recent work, Rugman (2005) extended the concept with a new definition by defining TRIAD as NAFTA, the expanded EU and Asia.”
Outward foreign direct investment by emerging market firms: A resource dependence logic (2014, background): “This operationalization also allows us to address, at least partially, some criticisms about the use of foreign sales (e.g., Rugman, 2005) as an overarching measure to capture OFDI activities (Flores and Aguilera, 2007: 1196).”
The regional and global competitiveness of multinational firms (2012, methodology): “It should be noted that Porter examines only exports, so his diamond does not, strictly speaking, extend to FDI and the activities of MNEs in having foreign subsidiaries.”
Fifty Years of International Business Theory and Beyond (2011, background): “empirical and theoretical work analyzing the regional nature of MNEs (Rugman and Verbeke 2004; Rugman 2005).”
Mergers and acquisitions in and out of emerging economies (2015, background): “They create value by internalizing resources from different countries given their domestic factor endowments and firms’ capabilities (Rugman, 2005).”
Will China’s Multinationals Succeed Globally or Regionally? (2007, methodology): “While there are 11 Chinese MNEs in the 2001 dataset analyzed by Rugman (2005), none of them report their geographic sales across each region of the triad.”
Applying and advancing internalization theory: The multinational enterprise in the twenty-first century (2019, background): “strategies by MNEs as a means to capture value from their FSAs (Rugman & Verbeke, 2004; Rugman, 2005; Asmussen, 2009; Rugman, Verbeke & Yuan, 2011).”
MNEs as border-crossing multi-location enterprises: The role of discontinuities in geographic space (2013, unknown): “A familiar IB model that integrates these levels – the firm on the one hand and the country on the other – is (Dunning & Lundan, 2008; Rugman 1981, 2005) the matrix of firm specific vs country specific advantages.”
The theory and practice of regional strategy: a response to Osegowitsch and Sammartino (2008, background): “This builds upon the diagram in Rugman and Verbeke (2007), where we explained that the ratio of foreign (F) to total (T) sales, or assets, should not be the sole focus of research in IB, and that the R/T regional variable is particularly useful for research on strategy.”
Global, Local, or Regional? The Locus of MNE Strategies (2016, unknown): “In other words, home-region diversification is ‘preferred’ over global diversification in most ‘real world’ situational contexts (Rugman and Verbeke, 2004 and 2005; Rugman, 2005; Rugman and Oh, 2008).”
Local, regional, or global? Quantifying MNE geographic scope (2009, unknown): “The emerging literature on regional multinationals (Rugman, 2005; Rugman & Hodgetts, 2001; Rugman & Verbeke, 2004, 2005) has added renewed relevance to the debate on globalization.”
Globalization and location choice: an analysis of US multinational firms in 1980 and 2000 (2007, methodology): “On one side of this debate, scholars claim that MNCs' activities have become increasingly regional during this period (Rugman, 2003, 2005; Rugman and Verbeke, 2004, 2007); on the other side of the debate, scholars emphasize the growing significance of global activities (Bird and Stevens, 2003;…”
Real options and the theory of foreign direct investment (2007, background): “These conclusions help to explain the recently emerging regionalization theory: MNEs tend to capitalize on opportunities in their home region, as far as customer-end activities are concerned, rather than engaging in a path of rapid ‘‘global roll out’’ of their products and services, as evidenced by ”
