Process as the Becoming of Temporal Trajectory
Laozi’s Daodejing (6th Century BC)
This chapter examines Daodejing , a compilation of sayings written by Laozi which focuses on engagement in political and practical affairs in early China. It discusses the text of Daodejing , its difficulties, origin, and purpose as well as its emphasis on both action and process. It also outlines the character of Daodejing as an exposition of process, the work’s treatment of the unfolding of process through paradox, the mechanisms of process in …
Wilhelm Dilthey (1833–1911)
Wilhelm Dilthey initially studied theology in Germany but later shifted to philosophy and history. He tackled the specific nature of human sciences in relation to natural sciences and initiated a debate on the connection between understanding and explanation in scientific knowledge. In addition to his own school, he exerted influence on fellow philosophers Martin Heidegger, Helmuth Plessner, and Hans-Georg Gadamer. This chapter explores the forma…
Martin Heidegger (1889–1976)
Martin Heidegger was a revered German philosopher and teacher, but also a controversial figure due to his political affiliations with the Nazi movement. He was associated with phenomenology, existentialism, and hermeneutics as well as process philosophy. This chapter examines the relevance of Heidegger’s work to process philosophy in organization studies, by discussing his views on the movement of history and the movement of nihilism. It consider…
Gottfried Leibniz (1646–1716)
Born in Leipzig in 1646, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz is an influential figure in the world of process philosophy. In addition to his philosophical contributions, Leibniz invented the infinitesimal calculus and binary numbers, along with mathematical and logical forms of notation still used today. Leibniz believed that the worlds of theory, praxis, nature, morals, and the divine as well as the human world all formed one perfect system. This chapter …
Zhuangzi (369 BC)
This chapter examines Zhuangzi , an influential Daoist text written by Zhuang Zhou and named after the Daoist thinker Zhuang Zi (or Chuang-Tzu, c.369–286 BC). It discusses Zhuangzi ’s emphasis on the philosopher’s wisdom regarding political and social management, its concept of personal realization, and its concern with social and political order. It also considers Daoism’s notion of wuwei in relation to wuwo (no self), wudai (no reliance), wugon…

The Oxford Handbook of Process Philosophy and Organization Studies
This book examines process philosophy in organization studies by focusing on the life and work of a specific philosopher such as Jacques Derrida, Zhuang Zi, Baruch Spinoza, Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, Wilhelm Dilthey, Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, Gabriel Tarde, Friedrich Nietzsche, and Henri Bergson. It looks at process from five different aspects—temporality, wholeness, openness and the open self, force, and potentiality—that all touch …
Process is How Process Does
Process philosophy originally referred to a small group of philosophers including Henri Bergson, William James, and Alfred North Whitehead as well as Heraclitus. These thinkers view the world processually, working from within things and reversing the relationship between ideas and life. This Handbook explores process philosophy’s relationships to organisation studies by focusing on five aspects: temporality, wholeness, openness and the open self,…
Heraclitus (540–480 BC)
This chapter examines Heraclitus’ philosophy and its relationship to process thinking in organization studies. It argues that thinking with Heraclitus makes us think beyond conventional categories and concepts and rethink our views on organization. After providing an overview of Heraclitus’ life, the chapter looks at his writings and discusses the challenges facing Heraclitus scholars. It also provides a background understanding for a way to read…
Gabriel Tarde (1843-1904)
The financial crisis of 2007-2008, which spread from the United States to other parts of the world, gave impetus to a renewed interest in the concepts of contagion and imitation. These are concepts that figure prominently in the work of the French criminologist and sociologist Gabriel Tarde (1843-1904). Since the late 1990s, Tarde's work has witnessed a rebirth in social theory. This chapter offers an interpretation of Tarde and highlights some o…
A Temporal Perspective on Organizational Identity
We offer as our main theoretical contribution a conceptual framework for how the past is evoked in present identity reconstruction and the ways in which the past influences the articulation of claims for future identity. We introduce the notion of textual, material, and oral memory forms as the means by which organizational actors evoke the past. The conceptual framework is applied in a study of two occasions of identity reconstruction in the LEG…
Actor‐Network Theory, Callon's Scallops, and Process‐Based Organization Studies
Process, Sensemaking, and Organizing
In the paper we contend that a major reason behind the dissatisfaction with many organisational theories is that they have been developed within the framework of scientific rationality. It makes them unable to capture and highlight how organizational practice is constituted. This is because scientific rationality forces organizational scholars to impose a scientific logic on practice, which is fundamentally different from the logic underlying pra…
Four ideal-type organizational responses to New Public Management reforms and some consequences
With its dual focus on service and accountability, New Public Management (NPM) accentuates the inherent tension between the logics of service and accountability respectively in local public administration. The present article explores, from an organization theory perspective, possible organizational responses to tensions created by the introduction of NPM. The article identifies four possible ideal-type organizational responses to NPM. First, par…
Studying Composite Boundaries
A basic tenet of this article is that the nature of an organization’s or group’s boundaries influences the ability of its members to exert influence on other organizations and groups. The organizations in the study are of different size and form, including an informal group, institutional sub-units, educational institutions and a virtual organization. A framework of interpretation is developed to assist in the distinction between organizations on…
Enabling and Constraining Properties of Organizational Boundaries
In mainstream organization theory the idea of the organization as essentially a boundary maintaining system is widely entertained. The idea stems largely from Parsonian influence in sociology and has influenced many works in various branches of organization studies. Implicit in the idea lies another idea; that of organizations as essentially systems that function in an exchange relationship with the environment, but where the environment is the a…
Epilogue
An epilogue should be short. It is not our intention here to identify all of the salient issues raised by the contributors to this volume. As you read the contributions, it will be obvious that each chapter stands in its own right as a challenging piece of work that creatively addresses boundary issues in organizations. Nevertheless, it seems appropriate for us to reflect on the theoretical and practical issues that have been raised, and to ident…
Introduction
The citation, taken from an anthology edited by Deborah Pellow, reflects a growing interest in boundary issues and corresponding systematic research efforts to study boundaries as phenomena in their own right. Epstein (1997) notes in particular that the interest in boundaries has attracted renewed interest in the social sciences. Several explanations are offered as to why this phenomenon is particularly present over the last decade. The technolog…
Managing Boundaries in Organizations
Drawing together an international group of scholars, this book provides fresh and provocative perspectives on boundaries in organizations. The emergence, management and transformation of organizational boundaries is intrinsic to modern organization and poses one of the most persistent and potentially rewarding challenges to researchers and managers alike. The book offers the latest insights into the nature of boundaries, how they may be interpret…
