  • Bridging the gap: International Organizations as Organizations

    Open AccessGayl D Ne, Gayl D Ness et al.ARTICLEInternational Organization1988Cited by: 51References: 29

    This article attempts to build a bridge between the study of international organizations and the sociology of organizations. Comparisons between functionalism in the two fields are found to be especially important in understanding different treatments of international organizations. We suggest that a number of concepts from the sociology of organizations can be effectively used to illuminate issues in international organizations. We focus on orga…

  • Managing not-so-small Numbers

    Gayl D NessARTICLEComparative Sociology1985

    The problem here is what to do with an N of 20? Comparative case studies effectively deal with up to five or so observations. Aggregate statistical studies can easily with hundreds and thousands of observations. But with an N of 20 is too large for detailed case comparisons and too small for the use of powerful statistical analyses. This article proposes a middle ground that weaves an argument from a combination of multiple regression equations a…

    Ruth Simmons, Gayl D Ne et al.ARTICLEPopulation and Development Review1983Cited by: 3

    Population programs have remained the stepchildren of the contemporary social science literature on population. They have weathered great hopes, disillusionments, and controversy. Their successes and failures in affecting fertility have received widespread attention. Yet the programs themselves, and their institutional realities, have not been given the sustained and rigorous consideration they deserve. Population programs can influence demograph…

    The European conquest of Asia is one of the major historical movementsof our time. Pannikar calls this the age of Vasco DeGama, Parry writesof the rise of European Hegemony, and McNeill sees it as part of an evenbroader historical process that he calls the rise of the west. For all observers it was truly a conquest, a violent and bloody struggle in which Europe gained the ascendence through superior military might

    Open AccessGayl D Ne, Gayl D NessARTICLEComparative Studies in Society…1970

    Few sociologists would quarrel with Dr. Allen's use of the term bureaucracy in his analysis of the Malayan colonial government. Nor could one argue that he has failed to come to grips with certain central sociological issues in the analysis of bureaucracies. On the contrary, Dr. Allen has given us an excellent case study that illuminates some of the dynamics of the bureaucratic processes

  • Econocological Analysis and Differential Economic Growth Rates: A Comment

    Gayl Ne, Gayl D Ness et al.ARTICLEHuman Organization1962

    One can only welcome Thomas R. McHale's article, Econocological Analysis and Differential Economic Growth Rates. It is an economist of rare insight and intellectual humility who reaches outside of his own discipline in an attempt to include the non-economic determinants of behavior in a systematic theoretical framework. It is an especially happy event that this particular attempt is made by a scholar who combines a competence in economics with a …
