Abstract

The study of processes of international expansion. of firms has a long tradition within the process literature. Yet, this stream of research is somewhat thin when compared to the overall body of work on resource allocation processes as well when compared to research on motives for international expansion of firms. There are several possible explanations for this. First, process research typically includes a substantial component of fieldwork. This type of research is hard enough when it is performed within one country, and considerably more challenging when it involves extended visits to multiple countries. Process research also typically examines rather complex phenomena and researchers may deliberately limit themselves to one country in order to control for variance.
