The advent of the Internet era, on the other hand, has resulted in disruptive changes in traditional inter-organizational networks, and some completely new inter-organizational settings are now arising. In its first part the book reviews the most commonly cited theories explaining inter-organizational phenomena: transaction costs economics, agency theory, resource dependence theory, game theories, collaborative networks theory, institutional theories, organizational ecology, resource-based / relational-based view of the firm, and knowledge network / social network theories. In Part II it thoroughly reviews the literature on a number of key IT-enabled inter-organizational systems currently on the rise, such as virtual organizations, e-intermediators and e-marketplaces. Lastly, Part III presents the case of the Yoox Group, a leading firm offering e-commerce services for fashion and design products. A framework is proposed for systematically linking the different possible types of inter-organizational relationships to specific, suitable sets of theories. The range of possible inter-organizational relationships is described on the basis of three pairs of opposites: conformism-breach, exploitation-exploration, and cooperation-competition. This results in a model that makes it possible to combine different theories in order to study the effects of inter-organizational ambidexterity and dynamism on performance.Contributions to Management Science,1431-1941Information technologyBusiness—Data processingEconomic sociologyOrganizationPlanningManagementIndustrial managementLeadershipIT in Businesshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/522000Organizational Studies, Economic Sociologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22020Organizationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/516000Innovation/Technology Managementhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/518000Business Strategy/Leadershiphttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/515010Information technology.Business—Data processing.Economic sociology.Organization.Planning.Management.Industrial management.Leadership.IT in Business.Organizational Studies, Economic Sociology.Organization.Innovation/Technology Management.Business Strategy/Leadership.306.3330650658.1658.4092658514Rossignoli Ceciliaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut89405Ricciardi Francescaauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autBOOK9910298505203321Inter-Organizational Relationships2543136UNINA
