Chapter Chapter 8 in Family Firms and Local Roots, 2023, pp 137-140 from Springer Abstract: Abstract Family business research has mainly focused on explaining how the interaction between two domains, namely the family and the business, shapes a firm’s behavior and outcomes, thus making family firms unique. More recently, a new stream of research investigating the interplay between family firms and geographical space has unfolded, disclosing new facets of the family business phenomenon. Exploring the “family firm-territory nexus” means understanding the distinctive way these businesses are affected by and able to influence the geographical space where the firm’s economic activity and the family’s social life both take place. This nexus is such that the peculiarities of the family firm enmesh with the peculiarities of a given territory. This book took part in this debate by untangling the micro-territorial foundations of family firms. Specifically, the main research questions this book addressed revolved around what makes families deeply “anchored” or embedded in their home territory and the influence of local ties on family firms’ economic performance and corporate social responsibility.
