Résumé

This handbook provides a forum for leading researchers in organization theory to reflect on their own discipline: how it has developed and why; what sorts of knowledge claims it regards as acceptable and why; and where it may be, or should be, going. Focussing on organization theory, the aim of this volume is to hold up for examination its key assumptions and knowledge claims, the chief explanatory strategies used, its relationship with the real world, and the future of organization theory. The book is divided into five sections under the following headings: Organization Theory as Science; The Construction of Organization Theory; Meta-theoretical Controversies in Organization Theory; Organization Theory as a Policy Science; and The Future of Organization Theory.

Readership: Academics, researchers, and postgraduate students in management studies, organization theory (organizational analysis, strategy, systems, etc.), and sociology; Managers and consultants wishing to follow cutting-edge debate.
