This book examines the inter-firm networks created by interlock
coordination through shared directors (inter-board) and managers
(inter-department) at various levels: whole aggregate, core vs.
peripheral companies, and distribution by country and sector.
Presenting an empirical case study on all the limited liability or
stock companies of the aerospace industry in the European Union and
its interlock partners worldwide, the authors shed new light on
these forms of coordination. Moreover, they reveal the relevance of
shared managers' coordination and hybrid manager-director
interlocks. The book applies advanced statistical and social
network analysis alike by combining firms' attributes (e.g.
standard economic-financial parameters) and topological indices for
firms (e.g. centrality and cluster measures). By conducting the
analysis at both the aggregate network level and the cluster or
corporate group level, the authors show how extensive and intensive
the interlock forms of coordination are, especially when dealing
with shared managers. By testing seven hypotheses concerning the
research stream on board interlocks and (more broadly) inter-firm
networks, the study offers new insights into the role of the
financial sector, on the relations between interlock coordination
and firms' performance, on the role of geographical, technological
and organizational proximity, and on the relations between
interlock coordination and firms' size. As such, this book will
appeal to scholars of organization studies, business and management
studies, industrial and evolutionary economics, and economic
sociology, as well as officers and policymakers at anti-trust
regulation institutions.
