Analysis of the Entry Mode Choice from Both Transaction Costs and Resource Based Theory

##plugins.themes.bootstrap3.article.main##

Resumo

A liberação dos mercados abriu as portas à expansão e incrementou o nível de concorrência em muitos mercados. Isto explica que as companhias se estejam
diversificando cada vez mais através das fronteiras nacionais. Este fenômeno está relacionado com o empreendimento internacional, já que a internacionalização é um exemplo de uma mudança de estratégia que pode ser definido como um ato empreendedor. Neste contexto, os acadêmicos no campo dos negócios internacionais há dado resposta basicamente a três perguntas: porque, onde, e como se internacionalizam as companhias? Devido a que a presente pesquisa trata sobre a seção de modos de entrada, o enfoque é claramente sobre “como”. A seleção do modo de entrada constitui uma das decisões mais críticas para o sucesso da estratégia internacional. Esta pesquisa analisa a seleção do modo de entrada tanto desde la perspectiva dos custos de transação como desde a teoria dos recursos e as capacidades, já que estas perspectivas usam e consideram diferentes supostos. Dado lo anterior, faço 4 proposições relacionadas com o estudo da seleção do modo de entrada a partir dos custos de transação e a teoria dos recursos e as capacidades.
