Technology‐Enabled Cross‐Border Entrepreneurship: The Role of Digital Platforms in SME Expansion Through the Lens of Institutional Theory

Thunderbird International Business Review, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Small and medium‐sized enterprises (SMEs) face significant institutional barriers when expanding across borders, including regulatory constraints, financial accessibility issues, and market entry challenges. Institutional theory provides a useful framework for understanding how external regulative, normative, and cognitive institutional forces

Success and failure in foreign policy: Comparing Bob Hawke and Kevin Rudd's regional order‐building initiatives

Australian Journal of Public Administration, EarlyView.
Abstract Remarkably little is known about what factors drive success or failure in foreign policy. In part, this is because there is little fundamental agreement on what constitutes success or failure in this domain in the first place. This article engages with these shortcomings by comparing two similar regional order‐building initiatives overseen by ...
