摘要:Mitchell, Agle and Wood’s (1997) stakeholder salience theory is
one of the most prominent contributions to the management literature.
Although the stakeholder salience theory is a powerful tool for identifying
and prioritizing stakeholders and is one of the most frequently cited works,
efforts to take stock of research in the stakeholder salience tradition have
remained limited. Therefore, in this article, we consolidated and
synthesized 57 relevant research articles into three mutually discernible
themes (assessment of Mitchell et al.’s (1997) model, refinement of the
model and integration of contextual factors) and identified areas in which
research into stakeholder salience has contributed to overcoming the
limitations of broader stakeholder thinking. Moreover, grounded in a
historical perspective, we present several avenues for future research that
also helped us to make theoretical, methodological and thematic
contributions.
