Abstract

The purpose of this exploratory study is threefold. It is first to conduct a critical literature review on international strategic alliances’ issues. Then, drawing on combined frameworks of Blanchot (2006), Reus and Ritchie (2004), and Cheriet (2009), we aim to propose an integrated model of performance measurement of these cooperative relationships with three logics: multi-dimensions of the construct,multi-perspectives of partners and integration of cooperative relationship dynamics. Finally, our word will also discuss the possibilities of its application to the specific context of agribusiness in West Africa countries. This first work intends to identify appropriate performance indicators through the examination of the main empirical research on the strategic alliances’ performance o in the context of emerging countries and to consider the possibilities of methodology replication to African context. ....French Abstract : L’objet de ce travail exploratoire est triple. Il s’agit d’abord de mener une analyse critique de la littérature portant sur les issues des alliances stratégiques internationales. Ensuite, en s’inspirant des travaux de Blanchot (2006), de Reus et Ritchie (2004) et de Cheriet (2009), de proposer un « tableau de bord » de la mesure de la performance de ces relations coopératives avec une triple logique : multidimensions du construit, multi-perspectives des partenaires et tenant compte de la dynamique de la relation. Enfin, il s’agira de discuter des perspectives de son application au contexte spécifique des industries agroalimentaires et du secteur de la distribution alimentaire en Afrique de l’Ouest. Ce travail d’étape est aussi destiné à identifier les indicateurs de performances pertinents à travers l’examen des résultats des principales recherches empiriques sur la performance des alliances stratégiques dans le contexte des pays émergents et de s’interroger sur les possibilités de réplication méthodologique au contexte africain.
