It focuses on the foreign peer network (FPN) to incorporate both the social and economic interactions within a cluster. An FPN is described as a set of social and economic relations among a group of foreign subsidiaries that are from the same home country and run same or similar businesses within a common geographic area in the host country. The initial condition of the FPN and its subsequent development is said to impose an imprinting effect on the subsidiaries' performance.FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails Vol. 2010, No. 1 Permissions Metrics in the past 12 months History Published online 30 November 2017 Published in print 1 August 2010 InformationCopyright of Academy of Management Journal is the property of Academy of Management and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites or posted to a listserv without the copyright holder’s express written permission.
