European J. of International Management (EJIM), Vol. 1, No. 3, 2007

Abstract: Bringing together research teams in up to 15 European countries, this project represents an ambitious attempt to analyse the impact of European integration on the corporate community. In particular, the research will investigate the Strategy–Structure–Ownership–Performance (SSOP) issues associated with the top 50 firms in each of those countries between 1957 and 2007, looking especially for any evidence of convergence towards a 'European' norm. A substantial database will be generated from this research, alongside a wide range of case studies that will enrich the quantitative evidence. This will provide the necessary information required for a reassessment of the views of Rugman, of Whittington and Mayer, and of Whitley, on the nature of international business activity.
