| Abstract: |
| •
|
In a broad sense, corporate governance is about how firms should be governed so that they are run effectively and efficiently.
This paper takes a broad perspective on corporate governance mechanisms and considers possible synergies between corporate
governance and international business (IB) research.

We summarize the papers included in this Focused Issue, and draw out their main contributions to the literature. In so doing,
we compare and contrast the four theoretical perspectives concerning corporate governance and IB adopted in the five papers:
i.e. transaction cost economics, the resource-based view, agency theory, and institutional theory.
|
| •
|
Finally, we highlight five research themes (international diversification, business groups, entry modes, subsidiary mandates,
and new international ownership structures) where future work explicitly addressing governance issues may prove fruitful.
