摘要：Recent literature has proposed that institutions play a pivotal role in corporate and business strategies. We argue that this role holds for manufacturing strategy as well. Despite extensive literature regarding international operations management (OM), few studies verify how important variables in OM vary across different institutional contexts. This scarcity of comparative crosscountry research reveals an important gap both for research and practice. In this paper we address this gap by providing a data analysis of a recent survey collected in Canada and Brazil. We replicate and extend previous research by comparing important variables of manufacturing strategy in these two institutional contexts such as knowledge exchange, green process management, environmental supplier management and the traditional manufacturing performance dimensions.
