Ninth Annual Strategy and the Business Environment Conference at UCLA Anderson School of Management,
March 6-7, 2009, in Los Angeles, CA.

We invite you to attend the ninth annual research conference on "Strategy and the Business Environment" that will be held at the UCLA Anderson School of Management on March 6-7, 2009.  The objective of this conference is to explore the interrelationships between the business strategies of firms and the social, legal, and political environment in which they operate.  The conference will bring together scholars interested in integrating business environment issues and business strategy.

We are receptive to a wide range of research perspectives and methodologies including formal theoretical modeling, quantitative research drawing upon historical or archival data, surveys, or publicly available data, and qualitative research. We are particularly interested in papers that have implications for management.  Papers drawn from economics, political science, strategic management, and other fields are within the realm of the conference.
