FACULTY AND RESEARCH

We conduct a quasi-replication to re-examine the theoretical arguments and empirical findings in Surroca, Tribo, and Zahra (2013). These authors argued that MNEs transfer socially irresponsible (CSiR) practices from their headquarters to their foreign subsidiaries. Recently, however, dramatic changes in institutional environments, multinationals, and their practices have raised concerns about the validity and generalizability of the original arguments. The replication results show weaker evidence than what was presented in the original study and offer a different view of MNEs from emerging markets based on an updated sample. Thus, our replication contributes to a cumulative body of knowledge in the cross-discipline field of international business, CSiR, and sustainability.
