International Business under Sanctions

The paper explores how sanctions affect international business (IB) and how firms respond to sanctions. We propose that firms’ reactions to sanctions can be analyzed through the lenses of leading IB theories, including institutions-based view and resource-based view. We argue that IB scholars can go beyond existing approaches to explain how firms act when facing sanctions. Moreover, we suggest that studies of firms facing sanctions help to reassess some of the assumptions underlying the prevailing theoretical explanations. 

We contribute with systematic view on strategy options that international and domestic firms may implement when faced with sanctions.

The sociomaterial lens within IS research holds that agency should not be considered as a property solely of humans, or of technology, but instead arises from an emergent interaction between the two. This, emergent, account of agency deepens our understanding of unfolding IS practice, but its largely cognitive orientation remains naïve towards affectively-sensed motivations that also form part of this interaction. By implication, a sociomaterial perspective lacking an affective dimension offers an incomplete conceptualisation of information systems. In response, an affectively-informed negative ontology encourages IS researchers to extend their focus beyond the visible, to encompass how actors' receptiveness towards material objects (discourses, technologies) is shaped by deep, affectively-derived motivations of which they are not focally aware, but which nonetheless acquire agency in contributing to a sociomaterial outcome. A central argument, and illustrative empirical vignette, demonstrate how the concepts of sociomateriality, affect, and negative ontology combine to offer researchers an enhanced understanding of relational agency. A discussion follows, exploring some initial ontological, epistemological and methodological implications of an affectively-informed negative ontology for IS research.

Digital technologies can create confusion among donors in the humanitarian supply chain (HSC), leading to uncertainty about their use. While resilience in HSCs has been widely studied, antifragility has not. This study examines how donor confidence in digital technologies impacts antifragility in HSCs through their application in sourcing, material flow, and distribution, with trust in digital technologies and perceived effective digital technology governance as moderating factors. Using resource dependence theory, data from 296 NGOs were analyzed with partial least squares–based structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM). The findings show that digital technology application is crucial for building an antifragile HSC and that donor confidence and trust in digital technologies are essential. NGOs should focus on enhancing trust and governance perception to facilitate digital transformation in HSCs.

When investors hold disproportionately high carbon emitters with associated increased carbon risk, a positive relationship exists between a firm's carbon emissions and the association between the stock returns and dividend payment. If investors hold disproportionately high carbon emitters with the associated increased carbon risk stocks, the stock market reacts less positively (more negatively) to dividend increase (decrease) announcements. At the same time, if firms under-price their carbon risk, the stock market reacts less positively (more negatively) to dividend increase (decrease) announcements.

This article explores the contribution of psychological entrepreneurial support, based on same-gender group mentoring, to the strengthening of female entrepreneurial intention in the specific context of a women-only incubator. According to the literature on female entrepreneurship, women entrepreneurs are faced with specific challenges that influence their entrepreneurial intention such as a lack of self-confidence, caused by gender stereotypes, and conflict between family life and entrepreneurial career. More precisely, our research aims to determine how psychological entrepreneurial support is implemented in the incubation process to overcome these specific challenges, and the mechanisms for strengthening female entrepreneurial intention analyzed at both intrapersonal and interpersonal levels. We discuss the implications of our findings on related research into business incubators and the design of mentoring programs adapted to the needs of women entrepreneurs.

L’eau, cette ressource si précieuse et indispensable à la vie, se trouve aujourd’hui au cœur de nombreux enjeux économiques, sociaux et environnementaux. Pourtant, il a fallu attendre longtemps avant que la communauté internationale ne prenne véritablement conscience de la gravité des risques liés à l’eau. Aujourd’hui, nous faisons face à une question cruciale : comment organiser la gestion de l’eau dans un contexte de raréfaction croissante ? Cela nécessite de repenser en profondeur notre modèle économique de l’eau, qui, à ce jour, repose principalement sur les volumes consommés. Ce changement nécessite des réformes profondes mais nécessaires pour garantir que l’eau, en tant que bien commun global, reste accessible à tous, aujourd’hui et pour les générations futures.

Le rapport extra-financier, aussi appelé rapport ESG ou RSE, donne une image complète de l'impact environnemental, sociétal et de gouvernance d'une entreprise. Il est aujourd’hui encadré par des initiatives comme le Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) et le Carbon Disclosure Project (CDP). La directive européenne NFRD et sa mise à jour, la CSRD, imposent des normes strictes. Cependant, la complexité croissante du cadre réglementaire risque de détourner les ressources des actions concrètes vers la production de rapports. Heureusement, des efforts sont en cours pour rendre les normes interopérables et simplifier les exigences.

Le Balanced Scorecard (BSC), créé par Kaplan et Norton dans les années 90, évalue la performance d'une entreprise via quatre axes : financier, client, processus internes et apprentissage/innovation. Il relie des objectifs stratégiques à des indicateurs précis pour aligner les actions avec la stratégie globale.

Le rapport intégré, créé par l'IIRC en 2013, vise à améliorer le reporting d'entreprise en intégrant des performances extra-financières aux performances financières pour offrir une vue globale de la stratégie et des résultats. L'IIRC distingue la Pensée Intégrée, une culture valorisant les résultats non financiers, du Reporting intégré, le processus de création du rapport. Le rapport intégré remplace le rapport annuel traditionnel, trop complexe et financier, répondant mieux aux besoins des parties prenantes.
