Context is increasingly recognised as a critical explanatory
variable in accounting for commonalities and differences in human
resource management. Giving expression to it in research models
holds the prospect of enhancing theory development, deepening our
appreciation of embedded practices in diverse territories, and
opening up new lines of enquiry. However, contextualisation
presents a significant research challenge and increasingly,
international academic research networks that bring together
scholars from different countries in the co-production of knowledge
represent a key approach to rising to this challenge. This volume
documents aspects of the development of one such network, namely
the Cranet Network on International Human Resource Management, and
presents a series of recent contributions from the network. The
chapters highlight, inter alia, the limits to convergence in human
resource management as a result of contextual determinism, the role
of institutional actors, markets, and work regulation in accounting
for variations in practices, the contextual specificities and
dynamics at play in transition economies, along with key
methodological challenges that arise when seeking to build
cumulative comparative knowledge via network collaborations of this
nature. The chapters in this book were originally published as a
special issue of International Studies of Management &
Organization.
