Joseph Jupille and James A. Caporaso. Theories of institutions

By: Hinings, C.R.
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Administrative Science Quarterly Description: 69(1), Mar, 2024: p.1-5. In: Administrative Science QuarterlySummary: This book has an ambitious goal—but not the one called for by some critics of institutional analysis in organization theory. The ambitious goal is to provide an overview, critique, and synthesis of institutional theories in the social sciences, particularly political science, sociology, and economics (organization theory is subsumed under sociology). However, the aim is not to provide an overarching theory of institutions or a critique of the field. Some scholars see institutional theory as uninhibited in its reach (Alvesson, Hallett and Spicer, 2019) and in need of more discipline and structure (see responses by Buchanan, 2020; Kraatz, 2020; Ocasio and Gai, 2020).- Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00018392231199539
