ABSTRACT

Objective: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the alliance performance of construction companies in Indonesia. A conceptual model is proposed and empirically tested where alliance performance is influenced by a two-dimensional construct composed of partner fit and conflict management.

Methodology:A questionnaire survey was administered to 311 managers in construction companies. Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and regression analysis as statistical tools were used to analyze the data and test the hypotheses that alliance performance is impacted by the partner fit and conflict management.

Results: The postulated relationships were found supported by the data. The research found that partner fit and conflict management have significant and positive impact on alliance performance of Indonesian construction companies.

Implication: This researchpresents a conceptually yet empirically supported framework to describe the significance of alliances and network relationships in the construction industry. The study is particularly useful for practitioners by identifying advantages of suitable alliance action among executive and project managers. This paper gives valuable reference to senior manager to consider the adoption of alliance based on selection of partners and conflict management in the construction industry in Indonesia.

1. Introduction

Love is the most intense feeling and most sought after from conception to death till man finishes his excursion of life on earth (Luhmann, 1986). The influence of love has been cited and rehashed in the history of literature. The concept of love is interesting in writing. Love has managed through all ages and times, however yet, has an unparalleled capacity that stays consistent even as it winds through various centuries. Love is likewise reflected in different concepts in writing, for example, contempt, pity, roughness, desire and idealism (Kanwar, 2014). However, of all the romantic poets, PB Shelley sketched out the mystery of love in ethics, a recognizable proof of self with the beautiful and excellent that existed in thought, activity or individual (Kanwar, 2014). As indicated by Shelley; it was not passion, which united individuals, but rather something more. It changed the character of an individual, changed the wimp to a chivalrous man, intend to honorability, rude to benevolent. In this way, love turned into a political belief system to change individuals for the regeneration of a better society. Shelley's thought of love lay in the soul of his idealistic perspectives on social equity and political freedom. (Bysshe Shelley, p. 82-88).

2. The French Revolution and its impacts on Shelley’s idealism

Percy Bysshe Shelley's perspectives were formed to some degree by the French Revolution and its outcomes, stressing singular vision, lyricism, and optimism. In spite of the fact that the soul of the French Revolution was still alive in radical and scholarly circles, Shelley and his radical counterparts were far less acquainted with its triumph than with its failure and destruction (Scrivener, 2014).

2.1 Shelley’s Political idealism

Shelley as an individual from governing class, was an innovator of political and profound insubordination. He was considered as a prophet of social and mental upheaval and his political thought roused some different writers and poets (Mc Niece, 1969). Shelley is a progressive and radical artist whose poetic work is a combination of an extraordinary reformist, visionary and dreamer (Salavati, 2013).

2.2 Shelley’s idealism based on Love

Shelley, being an idealist embeds his poems with an ideal world in which power of love rules the world. Shelley's vision is a mix of faith in the force of human love and reason and in the perfectibility and extreme advancement of man.

In contrast to the first generation of the Romantic writers, in Shelley, the depth in nature is changed to his radical inclination, however he is a decent onlooker of nature. Shelley, as a poet and writer, knows times of happiness when the beauty and charm of nature assimilates him through the ocean of magnificence that encompasses him, yet he gets to be miserable because he is aware that this magnificence does not oblige the joy of man. Along these lines, Shelley's poems with themes of nature, give us a feeling of disappointment over human fate under the strength of
