Résumé
L’objectif de cette recherche est d’étudier les conditions de stabilité des joint-ventures internationales évoluant dans un environnement incertain. En se basant sur une étude longitudinale menée entre 2006-2016 sur 7 cas de JVI entre des multinationales et des entreprises tunisiennes, les résultats montrent que l’orientation stratégique, l’apprentissage organisationnel et la dépendance constituent les leviers ou les freins du développement d’un contexte interne stable. Les caractéristiques de ce dernier catalysent ou inhibent les effets négatifs d’un environnement incertain sur la stabilité de la JVI.

Abstract
This article aims to deepen the understanding of the conditions of stability of international joint ventures evolving in an uncertain environment. Drawing on a longitudinal study, conducted between 2006-2016, of 7 cases of joint ventures between Multinationals and Tunisian companies, the results show that strategic orientation, organizational learning and dependency are the drivers or the obstacles to the development of a stable internal context. The characteristics of the latter catalyze or inhibit the negative effects of an uncertain environment on the stability of the IJV.
