A Literature Survey on Competitive Dynamics

Abstract

This study reviews major studies in competitive dynamics. Competitive dynamics is an area of management research to empirically study how firms' competitive actions induce competitors' responses and lead to performance. Although competitive dynamics is a relatively new area, many studies have been published in recent years. This paper selects important studies in competitive dynamics and organizes the variables used to clarify research themes of competitive dynamics and to discuss the research results for further studies.
