Understanding information system success model and valence framework in sellers’ acceptance of cross-border e-commerce: a sequential multi-method approach

144

2021 marks the 20th anniversary of the founding of Electronic Commerce Research ( ECR ). The journal has changed substantially over its life, reflecting the wider changes in the tools and commercial focus of electronic commerce. ECR ’s early focus was telecommunications and electronic commerce. After reorganization and new editorship in 2014, that focus expanded to embrace emerging tools, business models, and applications in electronic commerce, with an emphasis on the innovations and the vibrant growth of electronic commerce in Asia. Over this time, ECR ’s impact and volume of publications have grown rapidly, and ECR is considered one of the premier journals in its discipline. This invited research summarizes the evolution of ECR ’s research focus over its history.

“…Cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) refers to the international business activities in which individuals or enterprises from different countries utilize e-commerce platforms for payment and settlement transactions and rely on the international logistics system to deliver goods [3,4]. Suppliers and consumers of CBEC can sell and purchase products through the Internet on a global scale.…”

The effects of China’s cross-border e-commerce on its exports: a comparative analysis of goods and services trade

Yin

2021

This study examines the effects of China’s cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) on its goods and services exports to ‘Belt and Road’ (B&R) countries for the period 2000–2018 using a gravity model. We find that CBEC has a greater positive impact on trade in services than on trade in goods, especially after the implementation of the B&R initiative. Furthermore, as the level of CBEC rises, distance tends to have a lower (higher) impact on services (goods) trade, whereas the impact on services (goods) trade increased (decreased) annually. Hence, promoting the sustainable development of CBEC can lead to increased export volumes.

“…Cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) refers to an international trade activity in which two individuals or enterprises in different countries make transactions on e-commerce platforms and deliver goods through cross-border logistics [ 1 , 2 ]. The emergence and development of CBEC do count for the overall development of international trade activities and countries’ economies.…”

Prediction on transaction amounts of China’s CBEC with improved GM (1, 1) models based on the principle of new information priority

Benefited by e-commerce activities and information technology development, cross-border e-commerce (CBEC) has experienced rapid growth and attracted much research attention. This study takes China’s CBEC as a typical research object and intends to forecast its future development trend based on an exploration of its dynamic changing rules as a whole. The data set of transaction amounts of China’s CBEC from 2008 to 2018 was used in the modeling processes of improved grey models (GM) (1,1) proposed in this study, after which forecast results on the development of China’s CBEC from 2019 to 2020 were achieved. The experimental results reveal that, introducing the principle of new information priority to the improvement of grey models indeed works when forecasting a newly-emerging and vulnerable system like CBEC. Finally, it is predicted that China’s CBEC promises to continue to grow in the near future.
