摘要

合作聯盟是現今國際企業的世界裡除了純粹市場交易及純粹公司外最普遍的統治形式。不論是否有股權涉入，公司與國內或國外夥伴組成合作聯盟為旨在贏得綜效來創造比市場交易或公司體制下更好的績效與競爭優勢。本研究提出一以交易成本與社會資本觀點的整合性模型，藉以發現對於合作聯盟的直接與間接影響因素，而國家文化為其中之間接影響聯盟績效的決定因素，其影響力包括對交易特質、統治架構，以及協調機制。以此整合性模型，提出命題與相關的管理意函為本研究的主要貢獻。

Cooperative alliance has been a popular governance form other than pure markets and hierarchies in the contemporary international business world. With or without equity sharing, firms form cooperative alliances with domestic or international partners, aiming to gain synergies to create better performance than by using arm's-length transactions or their own internal competitive advantages. This paper proposes an integrative model from the perspectives of transaction cost and social capital theories as a means to find the direct and indirect determinants of cooperative alliance performance. National culture is specified as an indirect factor of influence in the following alliance performance determinants: exchange attributes, governance structures, and coordination mechanisms. Propositions and managerial implications are provided as a major contribution of this paper.
