Title: POWER AND ORGANIZATIONS
Description: "Power and Organizations reviews the evolution of theories on power and organization, presenting not only the theorists who identify power as positive, but also dealing with the negativity of power and the real horror of which organizations are capable - an area thus far underplayed in organization theory. At the core of organizational power projects are organizational elites, whose politics and projects are examined extensively. The book concludes by revealing the implications for organizations, and their elites, of the trends, tendencies, and theories considered in the course of the book. This book is required reading for graduate students and researchers in areas such as organization studies, social and political theory, and sociology. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
