System Change, Not Climate Change
The climate crisis challenges management scholars to address the system‐level factors that constrain and enable firms’ climate action. We argue that to meet this challenge, we need to study the climate action capacity of alternative systems of political‐economic power. We proceed in three steps. First, we develop a historically grounded map of four main types of power systems: ‘Oligarchy’, ‘Localism’, ‘Authoritarianism’, and ‘Democratization’. Th…
No Globalization Without Representation
From boycotting Nestlé in the 1970s to lobbying against NAFTA to the "Battle of Seattle" protests against the World Trade Organization in the 1990s, No Globalization Without Representation is the story of how consumer and environmental activists became significant players in U.S. and world politics at the twentieth century's close.
Operation Monkey Wrench
The policy process literature focuses on technocratic insiders, while scholarship on populism hones in on demagogic outsiders. The latter’s distrust of elites, compromise, and nuance makes them potentially effective in opposition or government, but less obviously as intervenors in policy formation between elections. We argue that, under certain conditions, populists can effectively insert themselves into policy processes without seizing power or …
The Basis of a New Internationalism?”
This article examines the thought and activism of the Institute for Policy Studies (IPS), a progressive U.S. think tank. During the 1970s IPS worked to promote Third World development, first by backing calls for a New International Economic Order and then by opposing the neoliberal turn at the decade’s end.
The Oxford Handbook of Sociology, Social Theory, and Organization Studies
This article reviews the intersection of scholarship concerned with two types of collective action: social movements and formal organizations. Theories of social movements originated in research on crowd behavior while organization theory was founded on theories of rational bureaucracy. Social movement researchers began importing ideas from organization theory in the 1970s to account for the role of formal organizations, resources and strategic b…
Michel Foucault and the Administering of Lives
This chapter suggests that Michel Foucault is a nuisance for scholars of organizations, albeit a productive one. Foucault disavowed the study of organizations, yet his work was fundamentally concerned with the administering of lives, a central concern of scholars of organizations. The chapter explores this tension by examining four displacements that Foucault sought to effect: first, a move from asking ‘why’ type questions to ‘how’ type questions…
Garfinkel and Ethnomethodology
Marx and Organization Studies Today
Marx's analysis was not only astute in discerning capitalism's enduring features: it was also deeply critical. He documented and denounced capitalism's dark sides—its enormous human and environmental costs. More controversially, he claimed to have identified some fundamental features of capitalist development that would lead inevitably to capitalism's demise and its replacement by a superior form of society. This article aims to show the fruitful…
The Oxford Handbook of Sociology and Organization Studies
The Oxford Handbook of Sociology and Organization Studies aims to re-assert the importance of classical sociology to the future of organization studies. Organizations are a defining feature of the modern world, and the study of organizations (organization studies) has become well established in both sociology departments and professional schools, most notably business and management schools. Organization studies has long drawn inspiration from fo…
Critical in the Name of Whom and What
Mayer Zald’s article poses an important challenge to the field of Critical Management Studies. It is based on a presentation to the Critical Management Studies Workshop (CMSW) at the 2001 Academy of Management meeting. I respond to it as someone who has helped organize the Critical Management Studies Workshop within the Academy of Management. I write here, however, not to represent the group’s views but to advance the debate about its future. Whe…
Automation et qualifications, nouvelles orientations
Avec la prise de conscience grandissante d'une «seconde révolution industrielle », les difficultés à mettre en œuvre une technologie avancée ont suscité de plus en plus l'attention. L'auteur brosse un tableau synthétique des principales thèses qui s'affrontent depuis trente ans sur l'évolution de la qualification avant de passer en revue une série de recherches récentes aux États-Unis et en Europe à propos des qualifications requises par la mise …
Trente ans d'automatisation et couts opératoires dans les banques françaises
[fre] Plusieurs indices de coût unitaire et de productivité sont construits pour l'ensemble des banques inscrites sur la période 1950-1979. Des ajustements pour l'évolution de la composition du produit bancaire sont estimés. Le progrès technique, dans ses formes mécanographique et informatique, est analysé à la lumière de ces résultats. On conclut que l'apport de la mécanographie hit considérable jusqu'au milieu des années 1960. L'essoufflement d…
