This important and original book critically evaluates case study practices and calls for a more pluralistic future for case research in international business (IB) and international management (IM). IB and IM researchers typically rely on a case study approach that could be characterized as 'qualitative positivism'. The editors and contributors look beyond this disciplinary convention and encourage pluralism in IB and IM case research. Their key argument is that increased awareness of the prevailing disciplinary convention and its limitations increases the potential for theoretical insight and methodological versatility in case research. The contributions provide critical, novel and innovative perspectives on the case study. The book offers inspiration to case authors, and is an authoritative methodological reference for reviewers of case research. Contributors include: P. Ahonen, P. Almond, P.H. Andersen, S. Blazejewski, M.Y. Brannen, T. Buck, E. Clark, T. Colling, P. d Iribarne, T. Edwards, J. Erland Lervik, M. Fletcher, L. Hurmerinta, R.J. Jensen, M. Johanson, H. Kragh, A.J. Mills, J.H. Mills, R. Mir, F. Moore, R. Morais, M. Nojonen, N. Nummela, R. Piekkari, E. Plakoyiannaki, A. Saka-Helmhout, A. Salmi, A. Soulsby, G. Szulanski, H. Tan, J. Tienari, E. Vaara, C. Welch, A. Wright

Marking the 50th anniversary of the European International Business Academy (EIBA), the 2024 Annual Conference in Finland was more than a celebration—it was a call to action. This volume captures the spirit of that milestone gathering, where scholars from around the world came together to reimagine the future of international business (IB) research.

Book A of this volume addresses new perspectives on agency and the role of governments, knowledge creation and novel technologies in uncertain conditions, and sustainable transnational collaboration in global value chains.In a world marked by deepening societal polarisation, mounting global challenges, and ongoing geopolitical uncertainty, international business must evolve.

By rethinking what we study, how we study it, and why it matters, this volume offers a visionary roadmap for the next 50 years of IB scholarship—grounded in relevance, responsibility, and the pursuit of societal impact.
