Academy of Management Conference, Boston | August 2023
This symposium features four papers presentations and a discussion on the topic of nationalism and organizational strategy. Collectively, these papers argue that nationalism can create both uncertainties for organizations and opportunities for managers to bolster the meaning of their products and the purpose of their organizations. Empirically, these papers adopt a variety of methodology, including the machine-learning based text analysis, the difference-in-difference analysis, and the in-depth case analysis. These papers are also featured by the diversity of national contexts and study how nationalism affects organizations in the world's major economic powerhouses, including US, China, Japan, and Europe.
