| Abstract: | Drawing on the theoretical foundations of new institutional theory and industrial organization economics, this study defines the business environment (henceforth as: bus-env.) as consisting of both competitive and institutional forces. Focusing on cooperative behaviour of firms, it aims to indicate how strategic responses to radical changes in the bus-env. can have long-run effects (here as: l-r-effs.) on business operations, and how these l-r-effs. shape constraints in the bus-env., generating path-dependent processes. The development of path of dualistic corporate cooperation in the Finnish wood-processing industry during the 20th century is examined to analyze these mechanisms. |
