Sommario/riassunto

While the globalization of strategy research has added considerably to our understanding of the subject, it has also brought about greater theoretical and methodological pluralism as formal, rhetorical, discursive, and practice perspectives (among others) emerge and gain traction within the field. Volume 27 of Advances in Strategic Management brings together various emerging perspectives in strategy research for further interaction and debate.
