Abstract

This Management Focus section aims to provide insights into the concept of periphery–core dynamics in international business and management. In this Management Focus section, we introduce several studies that illuminate various core issues situated within the "Periphery–Core Relations" and the knowledge domain of international management. The core themes inherent in periphery–core dynamics research include resource disparities, the institutional difference hypothesis, knowledge transfer, innovation, and the significant role of emerging multinational enterprises in these dynamics. Additionally, we outline a future research agenda on core-periphery relations.
