While entrepreneurship is linked with innovation, entrepreneurial firms often imitate competitors rather than offering new substitute products or services. This research examines the conditions under which entrepreneurs utilize an imitation versus a substitution strategy by integrating entrepreneurial orientation with resource-based view of the firm in considering entrepreneurs' resource accumulation decisions. We apply this integration to the managerial decision of whether to imitate competitors or create substitute products or services.

After clarifying the widespread terminological confusion regarding 'import-substitution', 'export-promotion' and 'free trade', this article focuses on an interesting debate about their complementarities. Particular attention will be paid to whether the simultaneous implementation of import-substitution and export-promotion neutralises each other and leads to free trade results. It will be argued that although this debate is stimulating, it has a number of important limitations and has very little bearing to actual trade policy implementation. [PUBLICATION ABSTRACT

Rigorous investigation of organizational epistemology, or what can an organization know and why, is a sadly underdeveloped field. Knowledge management as a field has suffered from naïve assumptions about what knowledge is and how it can(not) be shared. David Seidl in E:CO (2007) made a significant contribution to organizational epistemology, which I want to further problematize. Seidl made two assumptions: one ontological namely that organizations know things; and one epistemological namely that knowledge can be defined as perceptual complexity reduction. I wish to counter that persons and not organizations know things and that knowledge is more social than perceptual. I will argue that the problem of social knowing is not so much grounded in the epistemological question of knowledge / ...
