The reviving interest in the study of organizations has led to a spectacular increase in empirical studies of formal groups. Interest in organizations goes back almost to the beginning of man's recorded speculation about the universe. Recent studies have differed from the earlier ones not only in method and wealth of material but also in the degree of concern with what may be called the internal logic of organization. The political philosophers from Plato to Krabbe and Mary Follett have been concerned with an ethical or normative basis for organizational authority. Sociologists and institutional economists have been generally concerned with the social function of organizations. Only with the emergence of social psychology as a more or less autonomous discipline has the study of the behavior of organizations become a focus of interest
