Research group Emerging Markets Cross-Cultural Research Group
The Emerging Markets Cross-Cultural Research Group is a Stockholm Business School (SBS) based network of researchers undertaking emerging markets driven and related research from cross-cultural cross-case interdisciplinary approaches.
Group description
The researchers in this network come from multiple academic disciplines (management, marketing, finance, accounting, psychology, and not least international business). The group leader is Professor Tony Fang at SBS.
The relevance and importance of emerging markets for theory building and practice has been increasingly recognized in mainstream academic community and business world in the era of globalization. We are witnessing a historical transition from "West Leads East" to "West Meets East" in glocal knowledge production and innovation. In our definition emerging markets include not only BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) but also, more broadly, all the economies traditionally not treated as part of the classical Western economic club.
SBS has been leading in cross-cultural research through our dedicated teaching, research and publications over the years. One example is the pioneering of the Yin Yang perspective on culture which has advanced the theoretical debates and practical implications in the study of culture and cross-cultural management. With the setting up of this research group we aim to undertake cross-cultural innovative research activities and become a leading research group in the world in our defined areas.
