摘要
Firms are embedded in networks of cooperative relationships that influence the flow of resources among them. Dynamic resource flows and differentiated structural positions lead to asymmetries and influence firms' competitive behavior toward others in the network. We develop a: multilevel conceptual model relating key network properties to competitive action and response. A structural embeddedness perspective with a focus on simultaneous cooperation and competition advances our understanding of competitive dynamics and provides intriguing possibilities for future research.
