Abstract

This study investigates how information technology (IT) affects the ways
international joint ventures (IJVs) closely link their ownership structures and control
mechanisms to organizational performance. To this research end, a LISREL-type
structural equation model is empirically tested using IJV cases involving Taiwanese
manufacturers and foreign partners. Approaching the organizational issue from IT-based
viewpoints, this study explores the possibility of substituting IT for traditional equity control. Moreover, this paper also attempts to explain whether IT contributes to
the coordination and/or communication efficiency and efficacy between joint venture
parents, leads to significant reductions in negotiation costs between parent firms, and
increases the strategic planning capabilities of the top management teams. Finally, a
major issue in this study is to discuss how IT narrows the cultural distances between
joint venture partners and ensures better IJV performances. This paper is among the
pioneering studies that address the academic insights as well as the managerial
implications of recent IT developments.
