CONTENT
As an original strategic management perspective, coopetition has hitherto been
underexploited in analysing contemporary firm strategies and
behaviours and, more generally, managerial practices and processes.
This innovative book provides both theoretical insights and empirical
evidence on coopetition.
Coopetition shows great interpretive and normative potential and is
likely to be an increasingly important tool. This book is one of the
first key contributions in shaping and systematizing a novel
coopetition agenda in the field of strategy. The book argues that
coopetition is neither an extension of competition theory, nor an
extension of cooperative theory. It is in fact a specific and
distinctive research object, which calls for dedicated theoretical
investigation to develop questions for theory, method, and managerial
practice.
This book provides both practitioners and academic scholars with a
milestone that brings together an active community of researchers
expressly mobilized around the creative in-depth scrutiny of
coopetition. It will greatly appeal to researchers, scholars, and
graduate students of management, business strategy competitive
dynamics, and international business, as well as practitioners such as
managers and consultants.
?This book provides a diverse set of perspectives on the topic. It is
very useful reading for anyone interested in understanding
coopetition in multiple contexts.? ? Devi R. Gnyawali, Virginia
