This timely book offers up-to-date information for both researchers and decision makers regarding five core areas of Middle Eastern institutional and cultural context and its role in shaping business’s strategies and practices in the region.

The book is structured around four broad themes of: a) impact of corporate social responsibility and its reporting on different outcome variables related to performance, b) organizational change strategies, c) market entry strategies for the Middle East, and d) mergers and acquisitions in the MENA region. The analysis reveals the state of socio-cultural, historical and economic forces that shape business operations and management practices and processes in the region. It also highlights the research work undertaken by scholars along the above-mentioned themes over the last many decades in different Middle Eastern countries, what have been the dominant ideologies of the nations along with their institutional attributes, which have dictated the dominant management approaches in the region. The contributions included in the book also offer guidance for future research.

The volume will appeal to researchers, scholars and students interested in business and management and corporate social responsibility. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of International Studies of Management & Organization.
