Handbook of Philosophy of Management
The Communicative Constitution of Organization, Organizing, and Organizationality
Although the lion’s share of scholarship in management and organization studies conceives of organizations as entities within which communication occurs, “Communication Constitutes Organization” (CCO) scholarship has attracted interest because it makes a productive reversal, that is, by asking how organization happens in communication. Over the past decade, Organization Studies has become the key scholarly outlet for CCO thinking in the managemen…
Strategische Kommunikation im Spannungsfeld zwischen Intention und Emergenz
System Theory
System theory provides researchers with a transdisciplinary vocabulary and a framework for creating synergies between different disciplines. From a historical perspective, one can distinguish three generations of systems thinking which each represent a different research approach. The earliest of these relies on the notion of open systems, its successor on closed systems, and the current approach on autopoietic systems. This chapter discusses esp…
Organization as Communication
Anne Marie Lohuis and Mark van Vuuren Organizational change is daily routine nowadays. That is to say, managerially initiated, intentionally disruptive, and programmatically planned change is part of the business of today’s organizations. This change brings about an unavoidable period of discomfort, which organizations endure only because of a promised new state of stability in which things will be better than before. Several organizational schol…
Summoning the spirits
This article addresses the question: why does disorder tend to simultaneously accompany efforts to create order when organizing? Adopting a communication-centered perspective, we specifically examine the role of texts in the mutual constitution of order and disorder. Drawing on empirical material from three qualitative case studies on project organizing, we show that attempts of ordering through language use and texts (i.e. by closing and fixing …
Imagining organization through metaphor and metonymy
Within organization studies, Morgan’s seminal book Images of Organization has laid the groundwork for an entire research tradition of studying organizational phenomena through metaphorical lenses. Within Morgan’s list of images, that of ‘organization as flux and transformation’ stands out in two important regards. First, it has a strong metonymic dimension, as it implies that organizations consist of and are constituted by processes. Second, the …
The Three Schools of CCO Thinking
The idea of the communicative constitution of organizations (CCO) has gained considerable attention in organizational communication studies. This rather heterogeneous theoretical endeavor is driven by three main schools of thought: the Montreal School of Organizational Communication, the Four-Flows Model (based on Giddens’s Structuration Theory), and Luhmann’s Theory of Social Systems. In this article, we let proponents of all three schools direc…
Organisations- trifft Kommunikationsforschung
The Forgotten Function of Forgetting
Die computerbasierte Simulation ist zu einer weithin akzeptierten Methodik in den Sozialwissenschaften avanciert, insbesondere in der Organisationsforschung. In diesem Beitrag replizieren wir zunächst eine computerbasierte Simulation aus dem Bereich des organisationalen Lernens von James G. March. Im Anschluss daran modifizieren und erweitern wir die Replikation unter Rückgriff auf die Theorie sozialer Systeme Niklas Luhmanns. Während Marchs ursp…
