Résumé
Cet article étudie l’effet de l’agression de l’Ukraine par la Russie sur les décisions des entreprises étrangères de sortir du marché russe. Nous proposons une approche géopolitique du Management International pour inscrire ces décisions dans un contexte de démondialisation. Nous prenons également en compte les facteurs ESG des entreprises pour expliquer les décisions de sortie. Nous utilisons une analyse de régression multiple pour tester l’effet de ces variables sur un échantillon d’environ 2000 firmes. Nos résultats montrent que les décisions de sortie des firmes l’on été, plus en conformité avec l’orientation géopolitique du pays du siège, qu’en fonction de leurs intérêts économiques. Les facteurs ESG et les valeurs partagées dans les pays du siège des entreprises (Démocratie et Droits de l’Homme) jouent également un rôle important dans les décisions de sortie.

Abstract
This article studies the effect of Russia’s aggression against Ukraine on the exit decisions by foreign companies operating in Russia. We introduce a geopolitical approach of International Management to explore these decisions in the context of deglobalization. We also consider firms’ ESG criteria to explain their exit decisions. We utilize a multiple regression analysis to test the effect of these variables on a sample of around 2000 firms. Our results show that the exit decisions have been made more in conformity with the geopolitical orientation of country of origin than based on their economic interests. ESG criteria and shared values in the country of origin (Democracy and Human rights) also significantly affect exit decisions.

Resumen
Este artículo analiza el efecto de la agresión rusa contra Ucrania sobre las decisiones de salida del mercado ruso de las empresas extranjeras. Introducimos en este artículo un enfoque geopolítico de la Gestión Internacional para analizar estas decisiones en un contexto de desglobalización. Nuestro estudio tiene también en cuenta los criterios ambientales, sociales y de gobernanza (ASG) para explicar las decisiones de salida. Por medio de técnicas de regresión múltiple probamos estas variables sobre una muestra compuesta por aproximadamente 2000 empresas. Nuestros resultados muestran que las decisiones de salida fueron tomadas más de conformidad con la orientación geopolítica del país de origen que en función del interés económico. Los criterios ASG (democracia y derechos humanos) también afectan significativamente las decisiones de salida
