    Disentangling the role of the institutional environment in the ownership competence framework: A comment on Foss et al. (2021)
    (2023) GUILHERME FOWLER DE AVILA MONTEIRO; BRUNO VARELLA MIRANDA
    Research Summary: We extend the ownership com petence framework by discussing how the features of the institutional environment influence the exercise of ownership competence. Two amendments are pro posed. First, we add a new dimension to the frame work, institutional competence (“where to own”), which denotes that individuals and firms have heterogeneous abilities to assess how an institutional environment affects the potential uses of a resource. Second, we argue that institutional uncertainty moderates the three original dimensions of the framework, impairing the exercise of ownership competence of some entrepre neurs and firms more than of others. We use examples from the literature to illustrate our arguments. We also discuss the implications of our analysis. Managerial Summary: The ownership competence framework is built on the idea that business owners have different abilities to deploy resources and create value. Starting from this contribution, we shed light on the specific role that the institutional environment plays in the exercise of ownership competence. We argue that the ownership competence framework must explicitly consider where ownership takes place in order to explain the actions of entrepreneurs and firms. We also claim that institutional uncertainty can influence value creation in more subtle ways than indicated in the original formulation of the ownership competenceframework. All in all, this article paves the way forinstitutional aspects to be considered more explicitly inthe strategic analysis of ownership.

    A diversidade organizacional na gestão do futebol
    (2023) Barone, João de Siqueira
    O trabalho tem como objetivo principal entender e avaliar os diferentes modelos de gestão no futebol por meio de uma análise feita a partir do problema principal-agente e do conceito de estrutura organizacional. Com o advento da Lei das Sociedades Anônimas de Futebol no Brasil em 2021, o tema ganhou relevância no cenário nacional e vem abrindo espaço para os clubes nacionais serem administrados de maneira empresarial, como é feito em grande parte da Europa. Todos os modelos de gestão esportiva são citados e minimamente explicados ao longo do texto, mas os dois principais analisados são o associativo e o empresarial. Foram identificados os agentes e principais de cada um dos dois, bem como seus respectivos conflitos de interesse envolvendo os sócios, acionistas e executivos. A partir disso, é feita uma análise de como os conflitos de interesses presentes nessas gestões poderiam ser mais bem alinhados.

    How do transaction costs, capabilities and networks influence the procurement strategies of small agri-food firms? Evidence from the wine industry
    (2021) BRUNO VARELLA MIRANDA; Ross, Brent; Franken, Jason; Gomez, Miguel
    Purpose – The purpose of this study is to disentangle the drivers of adoption of procurement strategies in situations where small agri-food firms deal with constrained organizational choices. More specifically, the authors investigate the role of transaction costs, capabilities and networks in the definition of feasible “make or-buy” choices in emerging wine regions. Design/methodology/approach – This article analyzes a unique dataset of small wineries from five US states: Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, New York and Vermont. The reported results derive from both a hurdle model (i.e. a probit model and a truncated regression model) and a tobit model. Findings – The results suggest the importance of trust as a replacement for formal governance structures whenever small firms deal with highly constrained sets of organizational choices. On the other hand, the level of dependence on a limited mix of winegrape varieties and the perception that these varieties are fundamental in building legitimacy help to explain higher rates of vertical integration. Originality/value – This study is important because it sheds light on organizational constraints that affect millions of farmers across the globe. The study of “make-or-buy” decisions in agri-food supply chains has mostly relied on the implicit assumption that all organizational choices are available to every firm. Nevertheless, limited capabilities and the participation in low-density networks may constrain the ability of a firm to adopt a governance mechanism. Stated organizational preferences and actual organizational choices may thus differ.

    Plural forms and differentiation strategies in the agri-food sector: Evidence from the U.S. wine industry
    (2022) BRUNO VARELLA MIRANDA; Ross, Brent; Franken, Jason; Gómez, Miguel
    This article investigates how measurement ability, trust, and the pursuit of differentiation strategies influence the adoption of plural forms in an agri-food system. We analyze a unique dataset of 314 winegrape sourcing choices from 74 wineries located in five U.S. states, investigating how the pursuit of differentiation influences the likelihood of adoption of a plural form—that is, the simultaneous adoption of a formal arrangement (i.e., vertical integration or long-term formal contract) and an informal arrangement (i.e., informal contracts or spot-market transactions). Consistent with previous studies, measurement ability and the existence of trust are both associated with a higher likelihood of adoption of informal arrangements in comparison to formal arrangements. Moreover, we show that the likelihood of adoption of a plural form increases as the differentiation potential of a winegrape variety also increases. Finally, we find that the use of plural forms is associated with a reduction in the importance of trust in the relationships with external suppliers. This study is important because it sheds light on the role of plural forms in the pursuit of competitive advantage in an agri-food system. Overall, it suggests that the current interpretations of the idea of “vertical coordination” may be enlarged to encompass a greater deal of organizational diversity.

    Environmental enforcement, property rights, and violence: evidence from the Brazilian Amazon
    (2024) Oliveira, Gustavo Magalhães de; BRUNO VARELLA MIRANDA
    Conflicts over resources with poorly defined property rights have fuelled both deforestation and violence in the Brazilian Amazon. However, what happens when the State enhances its ability to monitor and enforce existing environmental laws? We study the case of the list of Municípios Prioritários, a policy that allocates additional resources to verify compliance with environmental laws in municipalities with high deforestation rates. Employing a difference-in-differences approach, our findings suggest that an improvement in the ability of the State to monitor and enforce environmental laws can reduce conflicts over the appropriation of value from resources with poorly defined property rights. Consistent with existing studies, we also find that the policy led to a reduction in deforestation rates in the Brazilian Amazon. Finally, we discuss the limitations of the current approach to curb violence in a region where the activity of mafias has considerably grown since the turn of the twenty-first century.

    Voting with the wallet: a principal-agent framework for the analysis of sustainable supply chains
    (2024) BRUNO VARELLA MIRANDA; GUILHERME FOWLER DE AVILA MONTEIRO; Oliveira, Gustavo Magalhães de; VINICIUS PICANÇO RODRIGUES
    Purpose – This paper aims to investigate delegation decisions in supply chains, exploring the metaphor that consumers who make environmentally and socially responsible choices are equivalent to voters in an election. Design/methodology/approach – This theoretical paper relies on the principles of agency theory to shed light on fundamental challenges that shape our ability to transform supply chains. Findings – This paper unravels two puzzles linked to delegation decisions within sustainable supply chains. It shows that as firms adopt sustainable production systems, their ability to convey relevant information that convinces consumers to enter in a delegation relationship diminishes, ceteris paribus; and once a delegation relationship is established, complementarity within the dimensions of the contract is necessary to guarantee the delivery of sustainability attributes. Research limitations/implications – The findings of this paper offer insights that can inspire empirical research on sustainable supply chain management. Practical implications – Policymakers and entrepreneurs willing to incentivize the transformation of supply chains must think about the nature of the relationship between firms and consumers. This paper provides a metaphor that can help practitioners to reinterpret their role as providers or consumers of products and services with sustainability attributes. Social implications – This paper provides insights that may enhance the understanding of how individual consumption decisions may contribute to transforming supply chains. Originality/value – This paper expands the repertoire of theoretical tools that can be applied to study the emergence and resilience of sustainable supply chains.

    Como as empresas podem lidar com a ascensão do populismo?
    (2024) Barros, Marina Abib Fernandes de
    A ascensão de regimes populistas é um fenômeno cada vez mais frequente, destacando a relevância do estudo de suas consequências para o setor privado. Esta pesquisa faz uma revisão da literatura disponível para explicar como o populismo afeta as empresas. Além disso, o trabalho discute como as empresas podem agir para prevenir eventuais consequências negativas decorrentes da relação com regimes populistas. Para tanto, é apresentada uma definição de “populismo” baseada em seis dimensões: (1) ideologia “maniqueísta”; (2) discurso “anti-establishment”; (3) conjunto limitado de ideias e valores – ou “thin ideology”; (4) soluções simplistas; (5) apelos emocionais; e (6) figura do líder carismático. A pesquisa mostra que o populismo provoca mudanças rápidas e frequentemente imprevisíveis nas instituições, gerando incertezas que afetam a ação empresarial. Diante de tal cenário desafiador, discute-se a importância das estratégias de “não-mercado” para a sobrevivência das organizações do setor privado, uma ferramenta que permite às empresas antecipar, entender e reagir às mudanças no ambiente institucional.

    Economia circular e a aplicação de seus indicadores no setor energético brasileiro
    (2020) Santos, Rafael De Vitto
    O mundo está em constante transformação e nossos hábitos e padrões de consumo não apenas norteiam essas mudanças, como também ajudam a definir o caminho que possivelmente trilharemos desse momento em diante. Tendo isso em vista, o presente trabalho tem como intuito entender o conceito de Economia Circular, levantar algumas das iniciativas em prática no setor energético brasileiro e entender se indicadores encontrados na literatura atual são adequados para medir o “nível de circularidade” dessas iniciativas, através de um entendimento de suas lógicas, cálculos e dados utilizados. Foi realizada uma análise descritiva sobre 3 tipos de indicadores discutidos na literatura atual, com 3 níveis de escopo diferentes: micro meso e macro (Harris et. al, 2020). Os indicadores selecionado variam entre indicadores materiais, sistemas de múltiplos indicadores e indicadores sociais. Ao final dessa análise esse trabalho conclui que alguns dos indicadores de circularidade mais conhecidos não são compatíveis com as iniciativas desenvolvidas nesse setor específico. Outros indicadores não tão usuais já podem ser considerados mais próximos de um nível adequado, mas no entendimento desse artigo, ainda necessitam de alguns ajustes para serem de fato ideais.
