Venture capitalists' decision policies across three countries: an Institutional theory perspective
Journal of International Business Studies, 2007Co-Authors: Andrew L Zacharakis, Jeffery S Mcmullen, Dean A ShepherdAbstract:This paper examines the influence of Economic Institutions upon venture capitalists' (VCs) decision policies. We conducted policy-capturing experiments on 119 VCs across three countries, representing distinct Economic Institutions (US, mature market economy; South Korea, emerging economy; and China, transitional economy). Results show that VCs in rules-based market economies (US) rely upon market information to a greater extent than VCs in emerging economies (Korea), and Chinese VCs (transitional economy) weight human capital factors more heavily than either US or Korean VCs. Findings suggest that, although professional Institutions may dictate which information is included in VC decision policies, the extent to which that information is emphasized is determined partly by the Economic Institution in which the decision-maker operates.

The Economic-Institutional construction of regions: conceptualisation and operationalisation
Review of International Studies, 2011Co-Authors: Kathy L. Powers, Gary GoertzAbstract:The international relations literature on regionalism, both in Economic and security issues, has grown dramatically over the last 15 years. One of the ongoing issues discussed in most articles and books is the conceptualisation of ‘region’. Instead of thinking about regions using notions of interdependence and interaction we take a social constructivist approach, whereby states themselves define regions via the construction of regional Economic Institutions (REI). We explore how a conceptualisation of region based on REIs contrasts with various related concepts such as regional system, and regional IGO. Empirically, we show that most all countries belong to at least one important regional Economic Institution, REI, (for example, EU, Mercosur, ASEAN, etc). In short, the world is dividing itself into regions by the creation of regional Economic Institutions. We contrast our Economic-Institutional approach to regions with Buzan and Waever's ‘regional security complexes’ which is based on security dependence. There are interesting agreements and disagreements between their approach and our Economic-Institutional approach to defining regions. It is perhaps not surprising that many REIs have taken on security roles, which we briefly show by looking at military alliances embedded in REIs. This suggests that policymakers are creating regions through Institutional innovations that link Economic and security issues.
