摘要
Uncertainty caused by environmental disruptions and unexpected institutional changes critically affect R&D and innovation systems. Motivated by the recent rise of populist political parties worldwide, this study investigates the influence of country-level populism on firm-level innovation. Building on institutional theory, we find evidence that higher levels of populism impairs firms' innovation performance by generating institutional volatility. Moreover, this relationship weakens when a firm exports more, and strengthens when a firm is located in a right-leaning country. We find empirical support for our hypotheses drawing on data from the Global Populism Database and the World Bank Enterprise Survey (24,375 firms from 38 countries). Our findings provide new insights for corporate strategy and R&D activities in unstable and disruptive political contexts. L'incertitude caus & eacute;e par les perturbations environnementales et les changements institutionnels inattendus affecte de mani & egrave;re critique les syst & egrave;mes de R&D et d'innovation. Motiv & eacute;e par la mont & eacute;e r & eacute;cente des partis politiques populistes dans le monde, cette & eacute;tude examine l'influence du populisme au niveau national sur l'innovation au niveau des entreprises. En s'appuyant sur la th & eacute;orie institutionnelle, nous trouvons des preuves que des niveaux plus & eacute;lev & eacute;s de populisme nuisent & agrave; la performance en mati & egrave;re d'innovation des entreprises en g & eacute;n & eacute;rant une volatilit & eacute; institutionnelle. De plus, cette relation s'affaiblit lorsqu'une entreprise exporte davantage et se renforce lorsqu'une entreprise est situ & eacute;e dans un pays de droite. Nous trouvons un soutien empirique & agrave; nos hypoth & egrave;ses en nous appuyant sur des donn & eacute;es issues de la Global Populism Database et de la World Bank Enterprise Survey (24,375 entreprises de 38 pays). Nos r & eacute;sultats fournissent de nouvelles perspectives pour la strat & eacute;gie d'entreprise et les activit & eacute;s de R&D dans des contextes politiques instables et perturbateurs.
