This special issue was motivated by the need to advance literature in this promising field of research and in particular to strengthen its empirical foundation.
Interestingly we find the 'rigid' view is still popular among researchers particularly those pursuing empirical estimation using cross-sectional designs (e.g. Knight & Cavusgil, 2004; Nasution & Mavondo, 2008; Vorhies & Morgan, 2005) and a substantial number of researchers using case study method (e.g. Sullivan Mort & Weerawardena, 2006) to examine capabilities.
The use of longitudinal designs to explore dynamic capabilities has been limited (e.g. Montealegre, 2002).
We sought papers for this Special Issue on topics ranging from conceptualization and theoretical development to empirical advances, using both qualitative and quantitative approaches.
From 43 papers we have assembled a suite of papers that fits with the Special Issue theme. Overall, the papers that have been selected after a rigorous re-view process have addressed a wide range of issues from capturing capabilities using qualitative designs, modeling of capabilities in the innovation-based competitive strategy to test the theoretical relation-ships using cross-sectional designs.
