Power and Organizations (Foundations for Organizational Science series)
"Too often political and organizational theorists have taken separate paths, addressing themselves to different problems and audiences. No more. InPower and OrganizationsClegg and his associates expose the power dynamics that lie at the heart of all political and organizational arenas, and in so doing, they shed light on the underbelly along with the creative potentialities in organizational life. This book is must reading for students of organizational and political theory who are eager to unite our understanding of how power operates in all contexts"(Joyce Rothschild 2006-03-28)"Power is a core concept in organization theory and the social sciences more broadly, yet it is missing from many contemporary debates. This book places the study of power where it belongs: at the forefront of our concerns as organizational researchers. Engagingly written, impressive in scope, and with a clear view of what power means, this book will command a wide audience."(Royston Greenwood 2006-03-28)
