This text emphasizes sociological approaches to organizations. It recognizes, summarizes, and comments on the contributions of numerous other disciplines to the study of organizations, including behavioral and institutional economics, political science, strategy, and management theory. Connecting the past with the future of organizational studies, the author gives careful attention to the contribution of early organizational theorists and shows how their work has shaped that of those who followed. --Publisher description.
