It shows that there are many different types, ranging from supplier contracts to equity joint ventures, and all have different levels of interaction and independence. Networks are another well-established form of cooperation; these can embrace several, sometimes many, firms and other partners. This chapter discusses dominated, equal partner, and coordinated networks. This chapter also describes a variety of taxonomies proposed for classifying alliances. It notes that Yoshino and Rangan (1995) and Dussauge and Garrette (1999) have perhaps the most attractive typologies of alliance forms among the many on offer. Yoshino and Rangan categorize alliances into non-traditional contracts, equity alliances, and joint ventures. Dussauge and Garrette identify international expansion joint ventures, vertical partnerships, diversification alliances, complementary alliances, shared supply alliances, and quasi-concentration alliances. The chapter concludes with some suggestions as to which forms may be most appropriate for which situations.","PeriodicalId":319278,"journal":{"name":"Cooperative Strategy","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116600978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It notes that most companies assess their prospective partners in terms of the complementarity of their assets and skills and the possible synergies that arise as a result of them. Fewer, however, devote sufficient attention to the cultural compatibility between the partners. Yet this factor is often responsible for the breakdown of alliances. The culture web (symbols, power structures, organization structure, controls, rituals and routines, and stories) depicted by Johnson et al. (2017) and the cultural profile (employee orientation, environmental orientation, international orientation, customer orientation, technology orientation, innovation orientation, cost orientation, and quality orientation) proposed by Bronder and Pritzl (1992) are both useful tools for assessing the presence of cultural difference between prospective alliance partners and hence the likelihood of culturally-related problems arising.","PeriodicalId":319278,"journal":{"name":"Cooperative Strategy","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128374350","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The success of JVs relies on their general managers taking an active part in handling relations between partners, in addition to managing other external relations and those within the internal organization of the venture unit. Their management of these relationships is therefore of critical importance. The role can be stressful because the presence of two or more partners or parent companies in strategic alliances of any kind can lead to conflict and ambiguity in what is expected of their managers. Non-JV alliances, such as two-party collaborations and multi-party networks, also have their own managerial requirements. The chapter closes by considering the qualities that alliance managers need in the light of the tasks and circumstances they face.","PeriodicalId":319278,"journal":{"name":"Cooperative Strategy","volume":"40 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116632748","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The chapter notes that transaction cost and resource-based theories and their derivative transaction value perspective offer theoretical support for why cooperative ventures are common in the “outsourcing” that is typical of global production networks. Network concepts help to explain the structuring of global production networks and of the individual transactions that comprise these networks. The chapter also discusses the work of Gereffi and others on global value chains which is particularly informative about cooperative governance types.

The question of performance must be addressed from at least three perspectives; those of the two or more parents and the cooperative entity. Because cooperative ventures are either contractual arrangements between various operational units in the parents or are independent organizations with their equity closely held by the parents, classic measures of firm performance often are not reported publicly and may not even be collected systematically by the parents. The performance of an alliance as a functioning entity may not equate to its performance for its partner or parent companies. For example, it may be subject to a variety of payments such as franchising fees and royalties that benefit one or the other parent, hurt the financial performance of the alliance, but benefit the system as a whole.","PeriodicalId":319278,"journal":{"name":"Cooperative Strategy","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127897296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It focuses on two salient contextual features. One is national culture. The other is the institutional environment, which particularly refers to governments and interest groups such as NGOs. National context is consequential for alliances in several ways. The context from which international alliance partners originate encourages each of them to internalize a particular set of norms and practices. So, if there is a substantial difference (“distance”) between those contexts, misunderstanding and friction can readily arise between the partners. Additionally, it may be problematic for an alliance partner to build sympathetic and constructive relationships with governmental bodies and interest groups in the host country location of the alliance unit (such as a joint venture), if that location is culturally and institutionally distant from the partner’s domestic environment. The chapter considers “distance” arising from country differences and how it can be highly consequential for the management and ultimate viability of an international strategic alliance.","PeriodicalId":319278,"journal":{"name":"Cooperative Strategy","volume":"117 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133640091","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
