Abstract: | This article investigates particular contractual features in contrast to prior studies examining strategic alliances as discrete governance structure. It investigates the dimensionality of the contractual complexity construct and the determinants of firms' adoption of various contractual provisions. The results show that firms' usage of particular contractual provisions is a function of asset specificity as well as whether the alliance's duration is per-specified or open-ended. |
