Re-internationalisation: exploration and conceptualisation (2009, background): “We argue that ‘history matters’ (Jones & Khanna, 2006, p. 453), and that reinternationalisers should be treated as a distinct group, whose experiences distinguish them from first time international entrants.”
Business Groups in Emerging Markets: Paragons or Parasites? (2007, background): “First, it would be interesting to compare the validity of cross-sectional explanations for the ubiquity and performance of business groups with timeseries based perspectives (Jones and Khanna 2006) - do groups evolve in a fashion that is consistent with missing institutions, risk sharing, tunneling,”
Overcoming Institutional Voids: A Reputation-Based View of Long Run Survival (2017, background): “As Jones and Khanna (2006) argued, for emerging market firms, history matters: their survival is dependent on factors and processes that allow them to endure shocks and crises over the long run.”
State capitalism in international context: Varieties and variations (2020, methodology): “The shifts in logics are evidenced by using rigorous historical methods, which have been increasingly adopted in IB but not yet extensively used in studies based on the institutional logics perspective (Buckley, 2009; Jones & Khanna, 2006).”

The Three Faces of Bounded Reliability: Alfred Chandler and the Micro-Foundations of Management Theory (2015, background): “In fact, Chandler was concerned mainly with accurately describing organizational change processes, rather than with crafting a parsimonious conceptual explanation of such organizational change, a point also powerfully made by Jones and Khanna on the importance of Chandler’s oeuvre for the management”
Drivers of Success for Market Entry into China and India (2007, background): “It also responds to the call for historical research in this area (e.g., Jones and Khanna 2006).”
An institution-based view of global IPR history (2017, background): “…Business Studies (2017) 48, 893–907. doi:10.1057/s41267-016-0061-9 Keywords: institution-based view; history; intellectual property rights (IPR); United States; China INTRODUCTION Most international business (IB) scholars are likely to agree that ‘‘history matters’’ (Jones & Khanna, 2006).”
National Animosity and Cross-Border Alliances (2013, background): “…introduce a new way of looking at political hazards by extracting the benefits associated with interdisciplinary research, mitigate the risk of premature closure in alliance research, and amplify explanatory power and specify directionality of causality in variation sources (Jones & Khanna, 2006).”
