家族控制、制度环境与社会责任选择性参与研究

Research on Family Control,Institutional Environment and Selective Participation in Social Responsibility

基于中国2010—2019年上市家族企业的数据,本文对于家族企业会如何选择性对待员工和社区利益相关者进行研究,并关注在不同制度压力情境下家族企业社会责任的选择性参与会发生怎样的变化。研究结果表明,随着家族控制权的提升,家族企业会选择承担更多外部社区责任,减少内部员工责任投入。此外,不同的制度压力对于家族企业社会责任行为的约束效果存在差异,具体表现为市场化程度的提高既可弱化家族控制对员工责任的负向影响亦可强化其对社区责任的正向影响,媒体监督和儒家文化作为非正式制度压力,前者主要通过约束监督弱化家族控制与员工责任之间的负相关关系,后者则是通过激励熏陶强化家族控制与社区责任的正相关关系。

Based on the data of listed family firms in China from 2010 to 2019,it was studied how family firms choose to treat stakeholders,and it was focused on how selective participation in social responsibility of family firms will change under different institutional pressures.The results show that with the promotion of family control,family firms will choose to undertake more external community responsibilities and reduce internal employee responsibility investment.In addition,different institutional pressures have different restraining effects on family firms’social responsibility behaviors.Specifically,the improvement of marketization degree can not only weaken the negative impact of family control on employees’responsibility,but also strengthen its positive impact on community responsibility.Media supervision and Confucian culture are informal institutional pressures.The former mainly monitors the negative correlation between family control and employee responsibility through restraint,while the latter strengthens the positive correlation between family control and community responsibility through encouragement and edification.
