This indispensable Handbook provides a timely and comprehensive
guide to the methodological challenges of qualitative research in
family business. Written by an international, multidisciplinary
team of experts in the field, the Handbook takes a hands-on
approach, offering valuable insights into a range of methods and
related questions. Providing practical guidance based on the
experiences of senior researchers, as well as expanding conceptual
understanding of qualitative methods, chapters explore existing
practices and issues common to many research projects, such as
getting access to informants and technical or publication hurdles.
Featuring reflective discussion on how to craft insightful,
rigorous studies, the Handbook will increase scholars' confidence
in using qualitative methods in their own research, from
traditional case studies to more recent methods such as QCA. This
Handbook will prove invaluable to instructors of qualitative
research methods, as well as scholars and students of family
business and entrepreneurship. Researchers using qualitative
methods in other social sciences will also find its recommendations
relevant and useful. Contributors include: R. Adiguna, N.

This book catalogs the 215 most-cited empirical, theoretical, and
practical articles on family business published in 33 journals
since 1996. Researchers, students, and practicing managers will
find it indispensable as a quick reference and guide to what we
have learned about family firms. Annotations for the articles
consist of: summary of key findings, research questions,
contributions, and research implications. They also include a
detailed description of the methodologies, empirical data,
definitions, and conceptual models used. In addition, the book
features chapters that review the literature, discuss how family
businesses have been defined, present recent trends in family
business empirical research, and provide an agenda for future
research. Scholars, researchers and PhD students in the fields of
family business, entrepreneurship, organization theory, management,
economics, finance, anthropology, sociology and business history
will find this compendium insightful. The topics covered in the
book will also prove to be essential to practitioners - both
advisors and operators of family enterprises - as it will provide
evidence-based knowledge on the issues and dilemmas faced by them
in everyday life.

This book is focused on management succession in the context of
family firms, i.e. the transition of leadership from one generation
to the next, and reports the results of an exploratory analysis
conducted in the early stage of the author's research on this
topic. It is based on a multiple case-study of the managerial
practices adopted in successful and unsuccessful successions, and
provides an attempt to increase our understanding of how the
process of succession in family firms can be successfully managed.
