Management researchers rely frequently on theoretical perspectives originating in North American and European contexts. Given the influences context has on scholarship, the question becomes if using primarily Western theories provides researchers with the design insights needed to capture the robust context of the setting in which they conduct their studies. Herein, we seek to establish a foundation for developing fertile exchanges of ideas regarding contextualized management research. To do this, we examine some of the main theories in management studies through the heuristic lens of an ‘open systems’ framework that allows us to build on comparative management and institutional theories. We discuss existing theory advances in selected areas of management studies, including corporate governance, strategic management, entrepreneurship, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) to offer avenues for future research. Completing studies with a solid grounding in contextualized management theories has the potential to provide novel research avenues and opportunities to integrate diverse theoretical perspectives. We also identify a need for multidisciplinary research, epistemological openness, and methodological pluralism.

情境化管理研究:开放系统视角

管理研究人员经常依赖源自北美和欧洲背景的理论观点。鉴于背景对学术的影响,问题变成了主要使用西方理论是否为研究人员提供了捕捉他们进行研究的环境的稳健背景所需的设计见解。在此,我们寻求为开展有关情境化管理研究的丰富思想交流奠定基础。为此,我们通过“开放系统”框架的启发式镜头检验管理研究中的一些主要理论,该框架使我们能够建立在比较管理和制度理论的基础上。我们讨论了管理研究选定领域的现有理论进展,包括公司治理、战略管理、企业家精神、和企业社会责任 (CSR) 为未来的研究提供途径。以情境化管理理论的坚实基础完成研究,有可能为整合不同的理论观点提供新的研究途径和机会。我们还确定了对多学科研究、认识论开放性和方法论多元化的需求。
