Knowledge is critical to the survival of emerging economy multinationals (EMNEs), who are confronted by a lack of internal competitive capabilities and external challenges associated with diverse institutional environments. They thus must manage and orchestrate their knowledge globally for ultimate catch up. This article systematically reviews literature concerning EMNE knowledge management using content analysis of 93 articles in 17 leading journals across 7 major disciplines from 2000 to 2020. Applying the antecedent-process-outcome (APO) framework, we identify three major themes: knowledge-seeking strategy, knowledge transfer and innovation. We discuss knowledge frontier issues, directions for future scholarship, and avenues for greater interdisciplinary cross-fertilization.

知识对于新兴经济跨国公司 (EMNE) 的生存至关重要，它们面临着缺乏内部竞争能力和与各种制度环境相关的外部挑战。因此，他们必须在全球范围内管理和协调他们的知识，以便最终赶上。本文通过对 2000 年至 2020 年 7 个主要学科的 17 种领先期刊的 93 篇文章的内容分析，系统地回顾了有关 EMNE 知识管理的文献。应用前因-过程-结果 (APO) 框架，我们确定了三个主要主题： 知识寻求策略，知识转移和创新。我们讨论知识前沿问题、未来奖学金的方向以及跨学科交叉推广的途径。
