When does category spanning hurt or help producers?

open access: yesStrategic Management Journal, Volume 47, Issue 7, Page 1907-1934, July 2026.

To unpack it, we theorize and find that spanning hurts

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Political Science, Volume 70, Issue 3, Page 925-945, July 2026.
Abstract How can defense alliances reap the efficiency gains of working together when coordination and opportunism costs are high? Although specializing as part of a collective comes with economic and functional benefits, states must bargain over the distribution of those gains and ensure the costs of collective action are minimized.

Cruising Together: How the Europeans Tipped the Scales for the Ground‐Launched Cruise Missile

open access: yesGlobal Policy, Volume 17, Issue 3, Page 506-511, June 2026.
ABSTRACT In the 1970s, the United States adopted the ground‐launched cruise missile (GLCM) despite opposition from the military and the lack of an established military requirement. The case is, thus, at odds with common models of military innovation that rely on military utility and organizational interests for their explanatory power.
