Zusammenfassung

Die empirische Analyse einzelwirtschaftlicher Internationalisierungsprozesse ist in der jüngeren Vergangenheit zu einer durchaus bedeutsamen Thematik innerhalb des internationalen Managements herangewachsen. Deutlich wird dies nicht nur in einer erhöhten Publikationsdichte in Bezug auf Studien, welche den Gesamtzusammenhang zwischen der Internationalisierung von Unternehmen und ihrem Erfolg zum Gegenstand haben (vgl. zum Überblick bspw. Glaum 1996; Glaum und Oesterle 2007; Oesterle et al. 2008; Verbeke et al. 2009); vielmehr hat auch die Auseinandersetzung mit Verlaufsformen der Internationalisierung und entsprechenden Einflussgrößen an Vehemenz gewonnen.
