dc.description.abstract | We present a systematic and comprehensive review of the extant empirical literature on exporter-importer business relationships during the period 1975–2017. The review covers 196 articles published in academic journals, which were content-analyzed with their theoretical background, research design, scope of research, sampling/data collection methods, data analysis, and thematic areas covered. Our findings reveal that this line of research is characterized by: (a) a sound theoretical foundation, the most frequent theories being the behavioral paradigm, transaction cost economics, and relational exchange theory | en |
dc.description.abstract | (b) heavy emphasis on formalized, statistical, cross-sectional, and causal research designs | en |
dc.description.abstract | (c) focus on single-country studies, conducted mainly in Europe, Asia, and North America | en |
dc.description.abstract | (d) a tendency to employ probabilistic samples, of a relatively large size | en |
dc.description.abstract | (e) an adoption of relatively sophisticated methods to purify and analyze data collected | en |
dc.description.abstract | and (f) an emphasis on topics relating to behavioral and structural relational dimensions, followed by external and internal influences. Guidelines for researchers focusing on exporter-importer relationships are provided, as well as suggestions for potential new research topics. | en |
