The tourism sector is a sector with many opportunities for business development. Entrepreneurship in this sector promotes economic growth and job creation. Knowing how entrepreneurial intention develops facilitates its transformation into entrepreneurial behaviour. Entrepreneurial behaviour can adopt a causal logic, an effectual logic or a combinat...
For decades, entrepreneurship has been promoted in academia and the tourism sector and seen as an opportunity for new business ventures. In entrepreneurial behaviour, effectual logic shows how individuals use their re- sources to create new opportunities. This paper aims to determine effectual propensity as an antecedent of entrepreneurial intentio...
The literature on effectual theory offers validated scales to measure effectual or causal logic in entrepreneurs’ decision-making. However, there are no adequate scales to assess in advance the effectual or causal propensity of people with an entrepreneurial intention before the creation of their companies. We aim to determine the validity and reli...

The second section analyzes the state of the art in the literature on alliances. We stress the conceptual evolution in organi...
The disorder that is apparent in the literature on inter-organizational relationships makes this field ideal for conducting quantitative studies that clarify the conceptual map and complement existing qualitative research. These latter studies only reflect the point of view of a small number of expert researchers, and hence provide a somewhat biase...

We base our analysis on the theories of transaction cost economics and the resource-based view. Second, we...
The growing chaos in the literature on inter-organizational relations makes it a fertile field for quantitative studies that clarify the conceptual map and complement existing qualitative studies. These only reflect the point of view of a few expert researchers and therefore a skewed view of the state of the art. In this context, a quantitative bib...
