Based on the natural resource-based view (NRBV), dynamic capability theory, and institutional theory, the study seeks to examine the roles of GSCM, absorptive capacity, and institutional pressures on the direct relationship between green innovation and sustainability performance. Data were collected from 370 senior supply chain professionals in private firms in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana and analyzed using covariance-based structural equation modeling (CB-SEM). The results indicate that green innovation has a positive effect on GSCM. It also indicates that GSCM mediates the relationship between green innovation and sustainability performance. However, absorptive capacity and institutional pressures do not moderate the direct relationship.

In response, nation-states have adopted more assertive approaches, including new industrial policies, global protectionism, and tit-for-tat strategies to reshape global power dynamics. This paper argues that firms can serve as a “political force for good” in this evolving landscape. By embracing Corporate Political Responsibility and Corporate Diplomacy, companies can engage proactively with social stakeholders and policymakers to pursue balanced, well-being-enhancing outcomes. The paper explores how firms, particularly in economic-industrial and geoeconomic spheres, may address the challenges of multipolar globalization by assuming state-like roles—providing public goods—and collaborating with governments to shape regulation, build resilience, and mitigate global conflicts.

Traditional International Market Selection (IMS) frameworks typically follow a linear, sequential process: identifying motives, selecting markets, and subsequently determining entry modes. However, such sequential frameworks inadequately account for today's dynamic global market conditions, often resulting in firms entering appropriate markets via an unsuitable entry mode—termed herein as Type III error. Addressing this dangerous error, our study proposes a novel IMS approach that simultaneously integrates market attractiveness and considerations of the suitability of the entry mode selected. Using a dual-criteria ranking method combined with a 45° line analysis, we evaluate 86 prospective international markets across 30 variables. This approach enables firms to align market selection and entry mode decisions from the outset and responds directly to recent research emphasizing their interdependent nature. Our findings reveal that not all markets are analogous, that is, equally attractive for export and FDI, and that some markets are quite distinct, requiring specific entry modes. By adopting this integrated, flexible framework, firms can make more nuanced, strategically coherent internationalization decisions, minimizing risks associated with entry mode misalignment and enhancing their global strategic effectiveness.</p>","PeriodicalId":47515,"journal":{"name":"Thunderbird International Business Review","volume":"67 6","pages":"739-755"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2025-07-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1002/tie.70007","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145230603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this context, reshoring—the strategic relocation of previously offshored operations—has gained renewed relevance. This study explores how the VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity) environment has reshaped the drivers, triggers, and outlook for reshoring. Adopting a qualitative approach, the research draws on in-depth interviews with seven senior executives from European and U.S. firms engaged in recent reshoring decisions. The findings reveal that VUCA pressures amplify external reshoring drivers, particularly those related to risk mitigation, control, and geopolitical resilience. VUCA events function not only as immediate triggers or accelerants but also as reflection points, prompting firms to reevaluate their global footprint. While reshoring is seen as increasingly strategic, its feasibility remains highly contingent on industry, product type, and operational complexity.

Second, we locate “third-party market cooperation” in the international business literature and examine its originality. Third, we assess how non-Chinese MNEs can seize business potentials associated with third-party market cooperation in SSA. We conduct a qualitative analysis of official documents and substantiate our analysis by evaluating other media sources on third-party market cooperation projects in SSA.
