Tiivistelmä: | This paper is a study of the dominant role played by large family firms in the internationalization of the Spanish economy. Based on new empirical evidence from circa 150 historical and internationalized family firms, the article integrates concepts and theories from recent literature on internationalization, international entrepreneurship, sociology, and family business. The main argument is that in Spain, as in other European, South American and Asian countries, the integration of most of the leading family firms in the global market has been the outcome of a long learning process strongly affected by the country's natural and human resources, institutional framework, and regional patterns of economic development and business cultures. |
