Abstract

This article is a result of the systematic literature review of relations in the interorganizational networks in the business environment. In recent years, interest in interorganisational networks has been growing among researchers and practitioners. Many authors describing the network define it different due to their specific approach, therefore it has no one specified definition. One of the key advantages of networks in the possibility of collecting and exploring data at interorganizational level of analysis which reflects interdependences between organizations. This theoretical article aims to explain the role of relations in the interorganisational networks, which allow between management in contemporary practices of organizations and value in their development.
