PurposeThe objective of this study is to advance the understanding of the connection between cultural distance and the cross-border diffusion of innovations by conducting a systematic review and analysis of previous literature.Design/methodology/approachThis study involved a literature review. A total of 35 articles published in ABS journals were identified from key management, international business and marketing journals. The articles were analyzed by the methodologies and findings presented.FindingsThe literature review shows that the adoption and diffusion of innovation and new products are bound to be deeply influenced by cultural distance. Specifically, national cultures influence the willingness of consumers to buy new products at both the individual and organizational levels; organizational culture plays a key role in the process of launching new products and diffusing innovations to the market. However, existing studies and their findings are fragmented and inconsistent. Controversial views remain regarding the impact of national cultural dimensions on the diffusion of innovation at the individual and organizational levels.Originality/valueThis is the first systematic review of the literature specifically focusing on the impact of cultural distance on the cross-border diffusion of innovation. In identifying the research gaps and limitations of extant studies, the authors point to avenues for future research to develop a more integrated research agenda for marketing, management and international business research.

O presente artigo busca interpretar a região de fronteira entre Brasil e Paraguai por meio de uma análise geográfica integrada, envolvendo território, região e fronteira. Compreende-se essa fronteira como um espaço com características contrastantes que constituem uma realidade contígua, mas também reticular, que está tanto sob os efeitos de uma dinâmica local como também global. Trata-se de um território dotado de contradições, com espaços que compartilham de alguns problemas e de algumas características em comum ou completamente diversas. Como procedimento metodológico foram utilizados levantamento bibliográfico, trabalho de campo, dados estatísticos do Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística (IBGE) e do Dirección General de Estadísticas, Encuestas y Censos (DGEEC), que permitiram, no conjunto, interpretar uma região de territórios transfronteiriços. Palavras-chave: fronteira; Brasil/Paraguai; território; região. Abstract: This article seeks to examine the border between Brazil and Paraguay through an integrated geographical analysis, which involves territory, region and border. This border is understood as an area with contrasting characteristics that constitute a contiguous but also a reticulated reality, which is under the effects of both local and global dynamics. It is a territory endowed with contradictions, with areas that share some problems and characteristics that are similar or completely diverse. Literature review, fieldwork, statistical data from Instituto Brasileiro de Geografia e Estatística – IBGE (Brazilian Institute of Geography and Statistics) and from Dirección General de Estadísticas, Encuestas y Censos – DGEEC (General Directorate of Statistics, Surveys and Censuses of Paraguay) were used as methodology. These procedures allowed to interpret a region of cross-border territories. Keywords: border; Brazil/Paraguay; territory; region.

This paper reviews the primary scientific articles applicable to the logistics industry, and specifically those relating to cross-border e-commerce in China. The authors focused on reviewing the articles about the current status of cross-border e-commerce in China and the factors affecting its development, with the aim of highlighting literature gaps. The authors used a systematic literature review (SLR) to identify, gather, and analyze 60 primary papers selected from international peer-reviewed journals and international conference proceedings between 2001 and 2020. Chinese cross-border e-commerce has experienced a trend of steady progress, although several challenges remain. These challenges include, but are not limited to, low custom clearance efficiency, complex monitoring and supervision, tax rebate settlement challenges, payment risks, insufficient talent within the Chinese industry, and the lack of scientific management guidelines. The significant contributions of this paper include critical highlights of the current gaps and future research themes.

Objective: The objective of the paper is to show the risk assessment of unsecured loans in theory and practise.Research Design & Methods: In the first part, the paper makes a literature review with regard to the theory unsecured loans and their risk assessment. In the second part, a case study discusses the risk assessment process as a practical application in the hypothetical case if a Swedish bank enters the German market.Findings: The risk assessment of unsecured loans is a standardized process there scoring models make a crucial contribution. This case study shows how difficult that process is in the event of cross-border activities, for example, a bank enters a new market in a new country.Implications & Recommendations: Assessing applicants on a new market is challenging due to the effect of asymmetric information. The problem can be solved by information sharing and by using the experiences from the existing portfolio. Based on that the bank can create an appropriate scorecard.Contribution & Value Added: The paper contributes to existing literature on risk assessment by applying scoring models to the case of cross-border activities.Article type: base on in-depth analysis of literature review

The phenomenon known as out-shopping behavior (also known as intermarket patronage) is further explored and analyzed within the context of international cross-border consumer behavior. The authors provide an extensive literature review and a set of research hypotheses, as well as a suggested research methodology, and argue that this research will allow for significant contributions to the literature on out-shopping, international cross-border shopping, and services marketing.

Introduction. This Article is a detailed analysis of one of the most complex and landmark judgments in the area of cross border group insolvency. It traces the timeline of the insolvency of Nortel Plc. and the simultaneous proceedings in multiple jurisdictions. Introduction followed by Literature Review. Research methods are exploratory in nature, since the study has to explore a case of the simultaneous proceedings in multiple jurisdictions. Results and discussions. The Article discusses that there are two major methods for dealing with corporate groups undergoing insolvency, which are: Procedural Coordination and Substantive Consolidation. Under such mechanisms which little to no precedence in any jurisdiction, this case carved out its own path to arrive at the outcome of Pro-Rata Allocation. The case is significant for being heard at the same time in two courtrooms, one in Delaware and one in Ontario, that were linked in order to receive live evidence together. This Article discusses the importance and significance of having a cross border group insolvency regime in place. In the era of Globalisation, the integration of national economies into a global economic system has been one of the most important developments of the last century

Performance Testing is essential to ensure the quality and scalability of Web applications. A well-defined process may guide Performance Testing Engineer in conducting this task. We intended to enlighten some major inputs related to web performance testing. For this, we have formulated and executed a given protocol, according to the Systematic Literature Review (SLR) protocol in Software Engineering. So, 37 papers were selected/analyzed and we have extracted their most relevant contribution in order to answer our research questions. This analysis enabled us discovering preeminent performance testing profiles/roles, approaches, artifacts, methods, stages or phases and activity flows that have been reported in the literature. We believe that, despite those several studies that mapping performance test context, there are a few remarks in which a clarification might be needed, once there is no well-established process that comprises the whole activities mapped as well as established a relation with other studies. Therefore, this study intends to provide relevant input that one may establish a novel web performance testing process.
