| Summary: | There is a growing consensus in the scholarly and practitioner literature that theories of management do not always translate simply and universally. Using meta-analytic techniques, we explore Hofstede’s (1980) prediction that aculture’s score on individualism-collectivism will be associated with a normative preference for certain distributive justice principles. Findings indicate that in individualistic countries the preference favors the equity rule over equality or need in reward allocation. Conversely, in relatively collectivistic societies equality or need is emphasized. Moreover, in collectivistic societies the equity rule appears to be preferred with out-group members and equality or need with-in group. |
