Emerging market economies have clear deficit in governance infrastructure and also have an increasing trend in the amount of foreign direct investment (FDI) outflows compared with advanced countries. Hence the main issue of the study is to identify the determinants leading to the increase in FDI outflows with special emphasize given to the role of governance infrastructure. Thus, the aim of the study is to analyze the effect of governance infrastructure together with other control variables on FDI outflows in emerging market economies. It is found that improvement in all measured aspects of governance infrastructure leads to increase in FDI outflows from emerging market economies and governance infrastructure, human capital and physical infrastructure are base factors for MNCs taking outward FDI decision from emerging market economies. It is also found that FDI outflows from emerging market economies are not market or efficiency seeking; instead they are resource, labor or finance seeking.

The current research aims at revealing the role of strategic alignment through its dimensions (communication, governance, infrastructure, partnership and skills) in achieving organizational excellence through its dimensions (excellence in leadership, excellence in service, excellence in knowledge through organizational ambidexterity). In order to achieve the goal of the research a number of colleges of Karbala University was selected. Thus, the research started from a problem expressed by a number of intellectual and practical questions aimed at answering. By diagnosing the level of its importance and its impact and the possibility of achieving strategic alignment in the colleges surveyed, it has used the research questionnaire and a way to get the data and use the research descriptive and analytical approach, which consists of three standards: strategic alignment, organizational excellence and organizational ambidexterity. It was used to consolidate and strengthen these concepts and focus on teachers; an intentional sample included 80 members of teaching colleges. The data were collected from the main sources of information using the questionnaire form; the data were analyzed using a set of statistical methods by means of software (SPSS V.23). The researchers reached a number of conclusions, the most prominent of which is that strategic alignment represents a set of behaviors and attributes that seek innovation and transformation to find new paths for exploring investment and energies available to them.

The effect of governance on FDI inflows is firstly through the effect of institutions on investment environment of a country and secondly through the decreasing transaction costs, production costs, and uncertainty. The countries are divided into three clusters. A new theoretical perspective is developed considering governance as a base factor. System GMM methodology is used to deal with endogeneity problem. The empirical analysis covers 32 advanced, 70 developing, and 17 least developed countries for the period 1996-2010. Improving governance infrastructure as a base factor attracts more FDI in all country clusters. FDI made into advanced countries are efficiency seeking, FDI made into developing countries are market seeking, and FDI made into least developed countries are resource seeking. Finally, it is found that a motivation factor alone may not be sufficient for MNCs to take FDI decision since they also observe governance infrastructure in host countries and any deterioration in governance infrastructure leads to a decreasing amount of FDI inflows.

AbstractWhitehouse adapts insights from evolutionary anthropology to interpret extreme self-sacrifice through the concept of identity fusion. The model neglects the role of normative systems in shaping behaviors, especially in relation to violent extremism. In peaceful groups, increasing fusion will actually decrease extremism. Groups collectively appraise threats and opportunities, actively debate action options, and rarely choose violence toward self or others.
