Mergers and acquisitions (M&As) are events that attract
considerable interest from academics and practitioners, and much
research has been conducted into their impact on individuals,
organizations and societies. Yet, despite all the existing research
and the varied theoretical and methodological approaches employed,
there remains more to learn about M&As. The Routledge Companion
to Mergers and Acquisitions takes a detailed look at this
multifacted subject using a novel framework of four domains -
substantive issues, contextual issues, methodological issues and
conceptual issues. Drawing on the expertise of its international
team of contributors, the volume surveys the state of the field,
including emerging and cutting-edge areas such as social network
analysis and corporate branding. This Companion will be a rich
resource for students, researchers and practitioners involved in
the study of M&As, and organizational and strategic studies
more widely.
This book provides scholars and practitioners in mergers and
acquisitions (M&As) with a solid foundation for further
research. M&As continue to shape the economic landscape across
the globe. While there is already a huge body of scholarly work on
the subject, findings appear contradictory and academics and
practitioners often struggle to understand what factors make
M&As successful. Due to the lack of an agreed-upon definition,
research findings appear contradictory, while in fact they are
often simply not comparable. To address this, the book rethinks how
we measure key umbrella constructs. It specifically focuses on the
conceptualization phase of the measurement process, often taken for
granted in the current research.

This book integrates two different but equally prominent themes in
the management field: mergers and acquisitions (M&As) and
corporate social responsibility (CSR). It explores questions such
as whether strategic goals overlap or conflict with sustainability
choices, what the strategic and sustainability tensions are
confronting expanding companies, and whether these companies can
grow and be socially responsible for a variety of stakeholders. The
authors provide a fresh perspective on the study of acquisitions,
aiming to inspire the M&A field and using examples from
different global and institutional contexts in both developed and
developing economies. This ground-breaking book addresses the gap
that has existed between acquisitions on the one hand and social
responsibility and sustainability on the other, for an integrative
perspective on enacting M&As and achieving the triple
people-planet-profits bottom line.
