This panel will introduce the novel and interesting idea of taking a modular approach to microfoundations studies in IB, the subject of a forthcoming perspectives paper and special issue in a premier IB journal. We explain our conceptualisation of micro foundations and systematically identify and illustrate a modular microfoundations perspective and what it means in IB (Pamela Sharkey Scott), reveal how this approach can be applied and bring together a range of IB studies (Randi Lunnan), offers promise for expanding mainstream IB theories (Emre Yildiz), and bring together existing and future studies, and contribute to solving the grand challenges(Ulf Andersson). The panel aims to call for IB scholars to adopt this new modular microfoundations perspective to better tackle contemporary challenges in global business and society over the coming years.
