Abstract

Through a rich empirical study of market relations in Nigeria, this paper deals with the role of norms and the development of trust in contexts with weak formal institutions. The analysis reveals that the way norms and trust are articulated varies across contexts and the entrepreneurs' attempts to facilitate market relations draws on the logics of cultural institutions. The study contributes to international entrepreneurship by arguing that specific cultural mechanisms are useful in enhancing SME internationalisation within an emerging economy context
