For the past 50 years, business and management and political science and international relations scholars alike have studied multinational corporations (MNCs) ties with political and regulatory actors and agents, particularly governments, political institutions, and regulators. We refer to such efforts by the firm to influence or manage political entities as corporate political activity (CPA) (Hillman and Hitt 1999; Hillman et al. 2004; Lawton et al. 2013a, b). Both academics and practitioners frequently highlight the relevance of CPA in and across international markets and call for further integration of the non-market perspective into international business and management research (Lawton et al. 2014).
