Call for Papers to be submitted to a Special Issue in CGIR on ‘Developing Corporate Governance Research through Qualitative Research’

摘要

Corporate governance research displays contrasting research styles and traditions. One approach is characterized by positivist, quantitative studies that develop theoretical hypotheses typically informed by agency theory, and use archival and publicly available data to test input-output models on samples of large companies. By far the dominant approach in a maturing field of corporate governance field it represents more generally the academic community's move towards a "hard science" type of research. This tradition is typically followed by economics and finance scholars and finds its natural outlet for publication on top finance and, to a lesser extent, management journals.
