From Budapest to Berlin : the role of reputation in the market economy
- 2013
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- During a trip from Budapest to Berlin in 1990, Joakim made observations about a grey market trade between Rumanian Roma and Vietnamese guest students in Berlin. It was seemingly inexplicable how the two groups could enter into business relationships without a common language. This paper interprets the observed events and raises fundamental questions about society, market economy, and democracy. It discusses the role of trust and reputation as the prerequisite of conditional trust and suggest that there are now validation for classical economic value theory and for relationship management. This has important consequences for sociology, business administration, and economics.

Pattern-finding in qualitative data - a suggested method of making data analyzable
- 2012
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- I have examined or tutored some 500 bachelor theses and some 100 master theses at several Swedish universities. Over the past 20 years Swedish secondary school graduates has become less and less apt in mathematics, Mullis, I.V.S. et al. (2009). Due to this development university students mostly chose to make qualitative studies, irrespective if this is the best choice to study the research question on not. Most of them don’t even make good qualitative studies.To help them get good qualitative use of their empirical material I have developed the following method. It is suitable for studies based on interviews, focus groups and observations. It is suitable both for deductive and abductive research, well grounded theory, and critical studies. As the dataset grows, the method becomes cumbersome, which I don not consider is a big problem, as big qualitative datasets would preferably be analyzed by non-parametric statistics, rather than the iterative interpreting qualitative method I suggest here.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- I have examined or tutored some 500 bachelors theses and some 100 masters theses at several Swedish universities.Over the past 20 years Swedish secondary school graduates has become less and less apt in mathematics, Mullis, et al. (2009). Due to this development university students mostly chose to make qualitative studies, irrespective if this is the best choice to study the research question on not. Most of them don’t even make good qualitative studies. After analysis of the requirements of what is needed, Prahalad’s (2006) ‘sandbox of innovation’, I have developed an abductive method for analysing qualitative data to help the students to get good use of their empirical material, a well-grounded theory, in contrast to the inherent deductive nature of grounded theory. It is suitable for studies based on interviews, focus groups and observations.As the dataset grows, the method becomes cumbersome, which I don not consider is a big problem, as big qualitative datasets would preferably be analysed by non-parametric statistics, rather than the iterative interpreting qualitative method I suggest here. The method has so far been used to advantage by students in some 15 bachelor and master theses. I also discuss the limitations of the method.

Quantum Leaps : The Resource-Based View (RBV) and the School of Industrial Organisation (IO) Revisited
- 2011
-
In: Proceedings from ICAM, 18th Annual International Conference on Advances in Management and 4th Annual International Conference on Social Intelligence, Cancun, 15-18 July.
-
Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- This conceptual paper proposes a synthesis of the Resource-Based View (RBV), and the School of Industrial Organization (IO) based on a framework developed by Philipson (1980). The framwork was developed after a little known work by Marx (1969): “Resultate des unmittelbares produktionsprozesses”. Philipson explored the concepts ”levels of functions of capital”, after Bettelheim (1970), the ”generalization of capital functions”, and used Gramsci’s (1971) concept of ”hegemony”. Two of Marx’ principal concepts were ”inner” and ”outer” conditions of production. These preempted RBV and IO, which appeared hundred years later. In spite of the development of the RBV and the IO over the last 30 years, the most interesting questions to pursue for strategy research are how companies transcend their resources to reinvent themselves and how they transcend their resources to face new environmental conditions of which they do not have enough experience and resources; hence the transcendence of their limitations. The present article contributes with a phenomenology for studying firm strategy giving precedence to a different mix of the two schools.
