【摘要】 无论是世界的经验还是中国的实践均表明，中小企业在经济增长、增加就业、提高持续竞争力和实现科技成果转化等方面，都起着重要作用。然而中小企业由于规模、资金、人才等方面的限制，抗风险能力较低，在全球化的竞争压力之下面临严峻的生存危机。本文以当前中国所处的转轨经济为基本设定，以实证研究的方法探讨中小企业外部关系网络与其经营绩效的关系，正是针对国际上该领域研究的发展趋势和国内研究存在的问题而选定的，并期望为中国中小企业的管理实践提供一点理论上的参考。 本研究有两个关键点，其一是微观层面“中小企业外部关系网络—经营绩效”这一对关系，其二是这对关系所处的宏观环境“转轨经济”，而两者的结合点即是本文的研究目的——“转轨经济”条件下“中小企业外部关系网络-经营绩效”关系具有怎样的特征和规律。因此本研究首先分两条线进行。 一是对中小企业外部关系网络的内涵进行探讨。在“社会资本”、“企业社会资本”、“关系网络”等相关较为成熟的概念的基础上定义了本研究中所特指的“企业外部关系网络”，在此基础上将构成中小企业外部关系网络的各种关系分为对等式联系和非对等式联系。 二是对中国转轨经济中存在的行业差异进行分析。从产权结构、市场结构、行业成长速度、行业绩效不确定性四个方面出发，以工业统计数据为依据，考察了渐进式转轨过程中的行业差异。 在两条线充分展开之后，便进入将两者结合探讨宏观—微观关联机制的阶段。本研究认为，转轨过程中行业差异使得不同行业企业存在于有所差异的宏观环境中，而这种宏观环境影响着企业拓展外部关系网络的努力所能取得的效果(即“中小企业外部关系网络—经营绩效”关系)，基于此提出了如下两个方面的13个假设：更多还原

【Abstract】 A large body of evidence shows that SMEs are playing more and more important role in economy development, innovation-led growth and job creation. Since SMEs seem to be at a disadvantage for scale, capital, human resource and technology, which are considered as important factors for competitiveness, more and more economists began to focus on the operation and management of SMEs. At the same time, we notice that transition economies such as the former Soviet republics and China offer a fascinating context in which to explore the link between enterprises and environment. This study, therefore, under the settings of transition economies, examined the influence of SMEs’ external networks on firm performance by using data from 57 SMEs in Sichuan Province.Firstly, the connotation of SMEs’ external networks are discussed. Based on the concept of social capital, enterprise social capital, social networks, which have been widely accepted, the definition of enterprise external networks in this study is given. In order to deeply study the connotation of SMEs’ external networks, we put forward that the relationships that form SMEs’ external networks can be divided into two kinds of linkages: Partnership linkages and Sponsorship linkages.Secondly, the character of a transition economy is summarized and the differences of industrial conditions are analyzed. Using the Industrial Statistic Data, we find out that industrial conditions (ownership structure, market structure, industry growth rate, industrial profit uncertainty) differ among industries.Thirdly, following the viewpoint that the industrial conditions would influence the relationship between external networks and performance of SMEs, the hypotheses in this study are put forward. These hypothesizes can be divided into two kinds:更多还原
