The dynamics of learning alliances: competition, cooperation, and relative scope

Article Abstract:

The tension between cooperation and competition affects the dynamics of learning alliances. These alliances are described through a theoretical framework which utilized simultaneously competitive and cooperative behavior by participating companies and determined factors that induced the occurrence of each type of behavior. Two kinds of benefits are associated with learning alliances, namely, private and common benefits. Private benefits are benefits that firms can earn through the acquisition of skills from their partners and applying them to their own operations while common benefits accrue to each partner from a collective learning application. High ratios of private to common benefits lead to departures from cooperative behavior toward competitive behavior while deviations from purely cooperative behavior in alliances are associated with market portfolio.
