Logics of Organization Theory: Audiences, Codes, and Ecologies
"The book will appeal to different audiences, making the book itself an interesting case study for the theory developed in it. The broader message of the book, developing a new set of tools that aid theorizing in sociology and the administrative sciences, will appeal to those interested in social science methodology. But first and foremost, it is of interest to researchers working on organization theory in general and on organizational ecology in particular. It goes substantially beyond earlier formalizations of organizational ecology published in the last decade, with a radical shift in focus toward the whole process of theory building."--Administrative Science Quarterly"Logics of Organizational Theorydeserves to be read and discussed by everyone interested in organizations and in the method of developing sociological theory."--Michele Lamont,American Journal of Sociology
