Charles Perrow
Organizing America: Wealth, Power, and the Origins of Corporate Capitalism

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: American society today is shaped not nearly as much by vast open spaces as it is by vast, bureaucratic organizations. Over half the working population toils away at enterprises with 500 or more employees--up from zero percent in 1800. Is this institutional immensity the logical outcome of technological forces in an all-efficient market, as some have argued? In this book, the first organizational history of nineteenth-century America, Yale sociologist Charles Perrow says no. He shows that there was nothing inevitable about the surge in corporate size and power by century`s end. Critics railed against the nationalizing of the economy, against corporations` monopoly powers, political subversion, environmental destruction, and `wage slavery.` How did a nation committed to individual freedom, family firms, public goods, and decentralized power become transformed in one century? Bountiful resources, a mass market, and the industrial revolution gave entrepreneurs broad scope. In Europe,… [detailed...]

Organizing Business Knowledge: The Mit Process Handbook

Jeffrey Fear
Organizing Control: August Thyssen and the Construction of German Corporate Management (Harvard Studies in Business History)

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: In a pioneering work, Jeffrey Fear overturns the dominant understanding of German management as `backward` relative to the U.S. and uncovers an autonomous and sophisticated German managerial tradition. Beginning with founder August Thyssen--the Andrew Carnegie of Germany--Fear traces the evolution of management inside the Thyssen-Konzern and the Vereinigte Stahlwerke (United Steel Works) between 1871 and 1934. Fear focuses on the organization and internal dynamics of the company. He demonstrates that initiatives often flowed from middle managers, rather than from the top down. Shattering stereotypes of the overly bureaucratic and rigid German firm, Fear portrays a decentralized and flexible system that underscores the dynamic and entrepreneurial nature of German business. He fundamentally revises the scholarship on Alexander Gerschenkron and Germany`s Sonderweg, and critiques Max Weber`s concept of the corporation and capital accounting. He develops a… [detailed...]

Organizing Corporate Legal Services: Theory Vs. Practice

2005 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThe principal question addressed is the extent to which American organizations source legal services they require in a manner consistent with transaction cost economics and agency theory. Transaction cost economics (TCE) is an interdisciplinary undertaking which joins economics with aspects of organizational theory and contract law. TCE views frequency, uncertainty and asset specificity (the extent to which assets have little utility or value except in the context of a particular transaction or relationship) as key variables in determining how a transaction will be structured. Agency theory focuses on identifying the most efficient contract form for a relationship taking into account certain assumptions of self-interest, boundedrationality, risk aversion and the cost of verifying what the agent is doing. A survey was sent to full-time in-house general counsel to collect data on actual practices in sourcing legal services for seven different areas of… [detailed...]

Organizing European Space

Publisher: —
Description: This book combines perspectives from political science, history and geography to provide a comprehensive introduction to `Europe` or European space as we understand it today. Central to the book is the phenomenon of the sovereign state and the question of alternative ways of organizing Europe politically and economically. The book explores four different ways of organizing space: state, union, region and network. By tracing the origins of the sovereign state in Europe, the book first reviews the resilience and adaptability of the sovereign state historically, and then looks at the implications of the contradictory processes of integration and fragmentation, or globalization and regionalization, present to [detailed...]

Organizing Genius: The Secrets of Creative Collaboration

1998 y.
Publisher: Perseus Books Group
Description: University of Southern California business professor Bennis and Los Angeles Times reporter Biederman examine six `Great Groups` whose work affected and sometimes changed the modern world. They are the Disney organization and its animated films, the Xerox Corporation`s Palo Alto Research Center, which designed the first user-friendly computer, the Clinton presidential campaign of 1992 for what the authors deem a remarkable victory, Lockheed`s Skunk Works, where the U-2 spy plane and the Stealth bomber were developed, Black Mountain College in the foothills of North Carolina, which lasted only from 1933 to 1956 but attracted many major artists, and the Manhattan Project, whose scientists created the atomic bomb. All of these groups, the authors stress, consisted of enormously talented people with a sense of mission, who worked under a strong leader and were imbued with pragmatic optimism. Each segment is so well told that it has lessons for all. [detailed...]

Organizing Immigrants: The Challenge for Unions in Contemporary California

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Recruiting the growing numbers of immigrants into union ranks is imperative for the besieged U.S. labor movement. Nowhere is this task more pressing than in California, where immigrants make up a quarter of the population and hold many of the manual jobsthat were once key strongholds of organized labor. The first book to offer in-depth coverage of this timely topic, Organizing Immigrants analyzes the recent history of and prospects for union organizing among foreign-born workers in the nation`s most populous state. Are foreign-born workers more or less receptive to unionization than their native-born counterparts? Are undocumented immigrants as likely as legal residents and naturalized citizens to join unions? How much does the political, cultural, and ethnic background of immigrants matter? What are the social, political, and economic conditions that facilitate immigrant unionization? Drawing on newly collected evidence, the contributors to this volume explore these and other… [detailed...]

Organizing International Standardization: Iso and the Iasc in Quest of Authority

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: Book DescriptionThis book investigates the ways in which global standardization organizations establish, negotiate, and maintain their authority and legitimacy, thereby inducing companies, states, and other organizations to adopt and implement the voluntary standards they produce. The book examines the structure and workings of two major standard-setters: the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and the International Accounting Standards Committee (IASC). Within ISO, the author studies Technical Committee 176, which is responsible for standards for quality assurance and quality management - the much-discussed ISO 9000 standards implemented by thousands of companies around the world. The IASC sets global accounting standards that are increasingly important in an era of rising demands for transparent, full-disclosure financial reporting. On the basis of extensive interviews and the analysis of documents produced by the standardization bodies, the author reveals the… [detailed...]

Organizing Silence: A World of Possibilities (Suny Series in Speech Communication)

— y.
Publisher: —
Description: Organizing Silence is a thought-provoking look at how silence is embedded in our language, society, and institutions. It provides an overview of the varied philosophical approaches to understanding the role of silence and communication. One particular view of silence/communication, as grounded in political and patriarchal frameworks, is given special attention. The author questions not only how dominant groups silence marginalized members of society, but also how marginalized groups privilege and abandoneach other. Sexual harassment is given as an example of material and discursive practices that articulate both a micro and macro level of silence, and accounts of both women and men who have been sexually harassed are provided. The book provides an alternative aesthetic perspective as a way of understanding the realities we create, encouraging alternative ways to listen to the silence, and presenting novel possibilities for future research.
