R&D Organization and Corporate Social Responsibility Specialization

Managerial and Decision Economics, EarlyView.

We show that both firms' choices and the government's preferences depend on the level of CSR concern and on

Southern Economic Journal, EarlyView.

Sharing the Same Playground? An Analysis of the Private Sector's Role in Tech Diplomacy

Global Policy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article takes the emergence of tech diplomacy as the motivation for an investigation into shifting relationships between traditional diplomatic actors and non‐state actors. The observation that ‘new diplomatic actors’ and new diplomatic venues have led to a ‘new kind of diplomacy’ dates back to at least the 1990s.

Drawing on debates in the anthropology of objects and political ontology, I develop this perspective through long‐

Co‐operatives and public policy: A scoping review

Annals of Public and Cooperative Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract We sketch a first‐ever map of the scholarly literature on co‐operatives and public policy from a selection of English‐language studies published since 2000 using a scoping review methodology. We find that while co‐operatives are often framed as solutions to societal problems, few scholars draw on formal public policy theories.
