Building bridges: towards an alternative theory of sustainable supply chain management (2015)
Journal Article
Matthews, L., Touboulic, A., Power, D., & Marques, L. (2016). Building bridges: towards an alternative theory of sustainable supply chain management. Journal of Supply Chain Management, 52(1), 82-94. https://doi.org/10.1111/jscm.12097

We contend that the development of sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) theory has been impaired by a lack of paradigmatic diversity in the field. The contested nature of the concept of sustainability has been repressed in SSCM theory, which ha...

Competition, foreign direct investment and welfare (2015)
Journal Article
Mukherjee, A., & Sinha, U. B. (2016). Competition, foreign direct investment and welfare. Economics Letters, 139, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.econlet.2015.12.013

In contrast to the usual belief, we show that a lower product-market competition may make the consumers better off and increase welfare when foreign firms strategically choose between export and foreign direct investment (FDI). A lower product-market... Read More about Competition, foreign direct investment and welfare.

Standardization efforts: the relationship between knowledge dimensions, search processes and innovation outcomes (2015)
Journal Article
Xie, Z., Hall, J., McCarthy, I. P., Skitmore, M., & Shen, L. (2016). Standardization efforts: the relationship between knowledge dimensions, search processes and innovation outcomes. Technovation, 48-49, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.technovation.2015.12.002

We explore how a standardization effort (i.e., when a firm pursues standards to further innovation) involves different search processes for knowledge and innovation outcomes. Using an inductive case study of Vanke, a leading Chinese property develope...

Estimating the quadratic covariation matrix for asynchronously observed high frequency stock returns corrupted by additive measurement error (2015)
Journal Article
Park, S., Hong, S. Y., & Linton, O. (2016). Estimating the quadratic covariation matrix for asynchronously observed high frequency stock returns corrupted by additive measurement error. Journal of Econometrics, 191(2), 325-347. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jeconom.2015.12.005

This paper studies the estimation problem of the covariance matrices of asset returns in the presence of microstructure noise and asynchronicity between the observations across different assets. Motivated by Malliavin and Mancino (2002, 2009) we prop...

Controlling for the use of extreme weights in bank efficiency assessments during the financial crisis (2015)
Journal Article
Asmild, M., & Zhu, M. (2016). Controlling for the use of extreme weights in bank efficiency assessments during the financial crisis. European Journal of Operational Research, 251(3), 999-1015. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejor.2015.12.021

© 2016 We propose a method for bank efficiency assessment, based on weight restricted DEA, that limits banks’ abilities to use extreme weights, corresponding to extreme judgements of the risk adjusted prices on funding sources and assets. Based on a... Read More about Controlling for the use of extreme weights in bank efficiency assessments during the financial crisis.

Social efficiency of entry in a vertically related industry (2015)
Journal Article
Basak, D., & Mukherjee, A. (2016). Social efficiency of entry in a vertically related industry. Economics Letters, 139, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.econlet.2015.12.003

We provide a new perspective to the literature on social desirability of entry by showing that, if the input supplier has market power, social desirability of entry of the final goods producers depends on returns to scale. Entry in the final goods ma... Read More about Social efficiency of entry in a vertically related industry.

Towards a sociology of healthcare safety and quality (2015)
Journal Article

Spanning three continents, from hospital to community, maternity to mental health... Read More about Towards a sociology of healthcare safety and quality.

Turnaround and failure: resource weaknesses and the rise and fall of Jarvis (2015)
Journal Article
Wild, A., & Locket, A. (2016). Turnaround and failure: resource weaknesses and the rise and fall of Jarvis. Business History, 58(6), 829-857. https://doi.org/10.1080/00076791.2015.1024229

Research employing the resource-based view (RBV) has overwhelming focused on the upside of resources, namely those that provide benefit to the firm. However, an emerging research stream suggests that the downside of resources, namely resource weaknes... Read More about Turnaround and failure: resource weaknesses and the rise and fall of Jarvis.
