Summary/Abstract |
Firms seeking to align with an emerging socio-technological paradigm for a future sustainable competitive advantage are faced with the decision of effectively positioning themselves within related business ecosystems. The positioning options broadly belong to assuming the functions of a platform, a supplier, a complementary, an intermediary or a combination of them. The timing and level of investment by each can be guided by insights on formation of ecosystems. In this study, we applied network analysis on historical deals data to derive insights on influencing factors and positioning strategies pursued by the hub firms that contributed through alliances to the formation of major ecosystems for the global Electric Vehicles (EV) industry. We introduce the notion of ecosystem formation hub firms that service a range of value chain functions under their prevailing governmental incentives structures. The prominent growth clusters have highlighted distinct regional policy environments, namely, rapid technology advancement push, market need fulfillment and early adoption stimulus. The firm strategies adopted for an emerging industry offer an ecosystem perspective to policy makers to design incentives for promoting formation hub firms and their complementors.

Summary/Abstract |
In recent years, geopolitical risk (GPR) has been a crucial factor in investment decisions and stock markets. Therefore, we explore the research on the GPR by employing bibliometric and scientometric analytical techniques. We find 366 scientific contributions in December 2021 from the Scopus database by searching ‘Geopolitical risk’ in abstracts, keywords, and titles. Our findings show that GPR research has gained momentum in the last three years. Specifically, the journal Defence and Peace Economics has one of the highest numbers of research and citation on GPR. Authors in Asia also dominate the GPR literature. Overall, this study contributes to the literature by presenting the existing research that may give new insights for prospective studies in GPR.

Summary/Abstract |
China has emerged as a science superpower in the first decade of the 2000s. In the world of science, where collaborative research has become the norm, China may have a great influence over the international scientific research collaboration (ISRC) network. In this exploratory study, the author focuses on the ISRC of the Little Dragons (LDs) (i.e. South Korea, Taiwan and Singapore), which have grown into advanced economies and thus emphasise science as a facilitator of further development. Using the method of cosine similarity analysis and social network analysis, the author traces the evolutionary changes in the ISRC of the LDs and the position of China within the ISRC network from 2002 to 2012. The differences among the three LDs are discussed and implications are drawn.

Summary/Abstract |
This article studies the integration of variable renewable energy sources (RES) into power networks. The main goal is to confront the contents and trends of scientific literature with the eyes and projects of researchers on future topics and issues to be solved, especially in terms of the modeling of electrical systems. The analysis relies on a bibliometric study of the Scopus database on the topic and on an online survey sent to the corresponding authors of the identified papers. The paper analyzes the dynamics of publication, clusters of collaboration, and main topics studied. It then identifies potential research leads, among which unresolved challenges regarding technical aspects, markets and financing issues, and social aspects. The disparity of models and results is still a necessary evil as research is not mature enough to integrate in one model all the very complex parameters of VRE integration into power systems. There is a lack of recurrence, though, such as the impact of emergent technologies or the development of substitute low carbon-emitting technology (other than solar and wind), need to be addressed. The paper also advocates the need for a systemic vision, for both research and policymakers that goes beyond the sole power system.
