SAGE PUBLISHING Family Business 4 Volume Set by PRAMODITA SHARMA
This new major work answers the growing global need for a resource that captures and presents a comprehensive overview of the literature in the field of family business. The last three decades have witnessed a dramatic increase in research on family businesses, as institutions have increasingly recognized that family businesses represent the most common form of business organization and a large part of the GDP in most countries. Scholars in the field have started to address critical questions such as:* Why do family firms deserve special research attention?* Are family firms really different from other business organizations? If so, how? And, so what?* Is there a shared definition of family firms? And, of family in business?* Are behavioral and governance issues that need attention in family enterprises any different from other firms?This four-volume work addresses these key concerns and provides a rich picture of what we know about family businesses and enterprising families, as well as including critical reflections on major areas and contributions.Volume One: Scope, Boundaries and Impact of Family BusinessVolume Two: The Business FamilyVolume Three: The Family BusinessVolume Four: Governance and Behavioural Issues in Family Business VOLUME ONE: SCOPE, BOUNDARIES AND IMPACT OF FAMILY BUSINESSIntroduction - Pramodita Sharma and Leif MelinPart One: Field of Family Business StudiesMethodological Issues and Considerations in Studying Family Businesses - Wendy HandlerThe Family Business: Toward Definitional Clarity - Reginald LitzFamily Firm Research: The Need for a Methodological Rethink - Paul Westhead and Marc CowlingDefining the Family Business by Behavior - Jess Chua, James Chrisman and Pramodita SharmaThe F-PEC Scale of Family Influence: Construction, Validation, and Further Implication for Theory - Sabine Klein, Joseph Astrachan and Kosmas SmyrniosFamily-owned Businesses: An Emerging Field of Inquiry - Barbara Hollander and Nancy ElmanTheoretical Foundations for Family-owned Businesses: A Conceptual and Research Based Paradigm - Max Wortman Jr.Trends and Directions in the Development of a Strategic Management Theory of the Family Firm - James Chrisman, Jess Chua and Pramodita SharmaThe Practice Driven Evolution of Family Business Education - Pramodita Sharma, Frank Hoy, Joseph Astrachan and Matti KoiranenIntellectual Foundations of Current Research in Family Business: An Identification and Review of 25 Most Influential Articles - James Chrisman et al.The Adolescence of Family Firm Research: Taking Stock and Planning for the Future - Eric Gedajlovic et al.Worlds Apart?
