“…(a) Structured theme-based reviews focus on the development of themes, which can include associated theories, models, constructs, contexts, and methods, in a review domain. Exemplars of such reviews include consumer behavior of luxury goods by Dhaliwal et al (2021), consumer behavior and purchase intention for organic food by Rana and Paul (2017), early internationalizing firms by Jiang et al (2020), entry modes by Canabal and White (2008), export barriers by Kahiya (2018), foreign direct investments by Paul and Feliciano-Cestero (2021), international franchising by Rosado-Serrano et al (2018), nation branding by Hao et al (2021), omnichannel retailing by Mishra et al (2021), and selfies by Lim (2016b).…”

Reviews in research are assessments of published material (e.g., literature and news) in a specific domain (e.g., area, outlet, and topic).Among the many types of reviews that exist (e.g., critical reviews and post-published reviews), systematic literature reviews are by far the most informative and scientific, provided that they are rigorously conducted and well justified. Among premier business journals, systematic literature reviews have been omnipresent in leading management journals for decades; however, they are relatively new in top marketing journals.There are numerous evidences to illustrate the acceptance and success of systematic literature reviews as a methodology for and a product of world-class research, which include but not limited to:1. The appearance and proliferation of systematic literature reviews in premier journals. For example, Weingarten and Goodman's (2021) review on experiential advantage in the Journal of Consumer Research and White et al.'s (2019) review on sustainable consumer behavior in the Journal of Marketing. 2. The call for and recognition of systematic literature reviews by editors of premier journals. For example, the Academy of Management Review is a premier journal devoted to review articles, whereas Palmatier et al.'s (2018) editorial statement in the

“…At this stage, two authors assessed the full texts of the remaining articles independently to ensure objectivity in their selection (Jiang et al, 2020). To be included in the final sample, articles had to (a) focus on a stage of the IS life cycle, (b) include the perspectives of flow and (c) should be based on empirical evidence.…”

Flow theory has been widely applied to understand user behaviour in the different phases of the information systems life cycle during last two decades. Nevertheless, its application is complicated due to issues and challenges related to the broad nature of information technology and human behaviour. Specifically, there is a lack of consensus on the conceptualization of flow in the IS context, and much uncertainty still exists about the key topics and the relationship between antecedents, dimensions and consequences of flow experience. However, a systematic review of how the flow phenomenon is conceptualized and operationalized within the IS life cycle has not been addressed yet. Therefore, studies based on the flow framework within the IS life cycle have mostly emerged without a research agenda and theoretical guidance. Aiming to fill this gap, this study systematically reviews flow studies related to three main phases of the life cycle of an IS, namely adoption, continuance and discontinuance. A total of 81 peer‐reviewed articles published from 2000 to 2019 were identified for analysis. The findings present a comprehensive view of literature by analysing characteristics of reviewed studies in terms of research methods, research contexts and popular theoretical lenses used with flow theory. Furthermore, the results show antecedents, dimensions and outcomes of flow that have been relatively well or under‐investigated. Finally, based on these findings, research gaps and directions for future research are provided.

“…Thus, we conduct a literature review selecting only case studies. This approach differs from previous literature reviews (Dzikowski, 2018;Ibeh, Jones, & Kuivalainen, 2018;Jiang et al, 2020;Nardali, 2017;Øyna & Alon, 2018;Tuomisalo & Leppäaho, 2019) in different ways: (1) in scope -we include studies from the broad area of management, not focusing only on international business and entrepreneurship; (2) in objective -we conducted a systematic review with a thematic analysis aiming to offer a broad overview on how the field has evolved; and (3) in design -by selecting only case study we can further the understanding on how the concept is being operationalized through a specific method.…”

“…Therefore, through a systematic review, we aim to understand how the INVs have evolved through the lens of case studies? Recent reviews have focused on bibliometric analysis (Dzikowski, 2018), performance (Jiang et al, 2020) and, a broader approach to the phenomena (Romanello & Chiarvesio, 2019). Our study adds to the previous research by offering a thematic analysis based only on case studies.…”

Objective: We delve into the rapid internationalization literature to provide a literature review on the most recent empirical research on international new ventures (INVs). We focus on reporting how the literature on INVs has evolved through the lenses of case studies, and we highlight issues on the use of INVs concepts.Method: We conducted a systematic review of 99 case studies articles related to international new ventures published in leading journals in all areas of knowledge within management. We performed a two-cycle coding and a thematic analysis.Main Results: We have found researchers are applying INV and BG concepts interchangeably, thus incorrectly. Scholars have not considered nor discussed the theoretical implications of dropping and adding criteria when selecting cases. We also found the research in INV has thematically evolved as scholars have increasingly studied the post-internationalization moment of these companies.Relevance/originality: We contribute to the INV's literature by demonstrating the theory is now evolving to understand the post-internationalization moment of these companies. We also discuss the implication of selecting cases disregarding the criteria that qualify them as INVs.Theoretical/methodological contributions: Our research contributes with a discussion on the implications of loosely applying the INVs concepts and offers insights on how the literature has evolved.
