Abstract: The socio-institutional environment in which we grow up shapes the development of our mental schemes and our conception of reality. This is true for researchers too. In this article, we analyze the context in which the theory the intelligent enterprise was conceived. According to its author, the theory aimed at maintaining the competitive advantage of firms belonging to advanced industrialized countries. As such, it might have been influenced by a hegemonic vision of the economic world. Such influence may explain Western blindness towards the rise of emerging champions.
