This paper adopts the approach of systematic review and provides a synthesis of the literature on coopetition in management and strategy. Our review focuses first on the phenomenon features, and offers a consensus-based definition. Next, we address the theoretical frameworks used by researchers and examine the linkage with related fields in order to outline the distinctive lines of coopetition versus alliances. Then we review the empirical foci adopted in published work to identify both preferred and underexplored areas of extant academic attention. We draw a research agenda oriented at further exploration of coopetition morphology, elucidating the stability issue and examining coopetition along the antecedents-process-outcomes trail.(original abstract)
