چکیده

کسب‌وکارهای خانوادگی و بین‌المللی­‌شدن آن‌ها توجه روزافزونی را به خود جلب کرده است. در طی سال‌ها پژوهشگران سعی کرده‌اند ویژگی‌های مختلف شرکت‌های خانوادگی را که به موفقیت آن‌ها در بازارهای بین‌المللی کمک می‌کنند، شناسایی کنند. در این پژوهش بر خانواده‌گرایی تمرکز شده و بررسی می­‌شود که چگونه خانواده­‌گرایی در فرایند بین‌المللی‌­شدن کسب‌وکارهای خانوادگی نقش ایفا می‌کند. خانواده‌­گرایی به شایستگی‌ها و قابلیت‌هایی اطلاق می‌شود که در شرکت‌های خانوادگی، به­دلیل تعامل بین خانواده و کسب‌وکار، ایجاد می‌شود. برای پاسخ به این سؤال از روش پژوهش کیفی و مصاحبه‌های نیمه‌­ساختاریافته برای جمع‌آوری داده از هفت کسب‌وکار خانوادگی که وارد بازارهای بین‌المللی شده‌­اند، استفاده شده است. بر اساس نظریه سرمایه اجتماعی، یافته‌ها پژوهش نشان می‌دهد که چگونه ماهیت روابط خانوادگی از منظر جنبه‌های مختلف ابعاد شناختی، ارتباطی و ساختاری بین‌المللی­‌شدن شرکت‌های خانوادگی از بازارهای نوظهور را تسهیل می‌کنند.

چکیده [English]

Family businesses and their internationalization have attracted increasing attention. Over the years, scholars have attempted to shed light on different characteristics of family firms that support their successful internationalization. In this research, we focus on familiness and investigate how familiness plays a role in the process of internationalization. Familiness refers to competencies and capabilities that are created in family firms because of the interaction between family and business. To answer this question, we have employed a qualitative research method and semi-structured interviews to collect data from seven family businesses from an emerging economy that were operating internationally. Built upon the social capital theory, our findings shed light on how the nature of family relationships in terms of different aspects of cognitive, relational, and structural dimensions facilitate the internationalization of family firms.
