  Globalization Strategies for Small and Medium Enterprises: A Comparative Analysis Centered on Professor Kenshi Yamakura’s Inter-Organizational Relationships Theory Abstract Small and medium enterprises (SMEs) face significant challenges in globalization, such as resource constraints and market entry barriers. This paper centers on Professor Kenshi Yamakura’s theory of inter-organizational relationships, exploring how SMEs leverage inter-firm networks and strategic alliances to advance their business strategies and global expansion. It begins by outlining Yamakura’s research contributions, particularly analyzing his 2009 paper, Strategy and Organization of Small Business , and elucidating the linkage between business strategy and inter-organizational relationships. The paper then focuses on SMEs’ globalization strategies, comparing Yamakura’s network transformation perspective with Michael Porter’s industry structure analysis and Gary Hamel’s strategic intent theory.

  Herbert Simon’s Bounded Rationality: A Cornerstone of Cognitive Science Abstract Herbert A. Simon’s concept of bounded rationality represents a paradigm shift in understanding human decision-making, challenging the classical economic assumption of perfect rationality. Introduced in the mid-20th century, bounded rationality posits that individuals operate under cognitive, informational, and temporal constraints, leading to “satisficing” behaviors rather than exhaustive optimization. This paper explores the origins, key tenets, and implications of bounded rationality within cognitive science. Drawing on Simon’s foundational works, subsequent extensions, and cross-cultural applications such as those by Professor Motokichi Inaba of Yokohama National University, it examines how this framework integrates insights from psychology, economics, and artificial intelligence. The analysis highlights its role in modeling human cognition as an information-processing system and its enduring in...
