Organizations: A Dialectical View
Benson, J. Kenneth
Administrative Science Quarterly, 22, 1, 1-21, Mar 77
This dialectical analysis is guided by four basic principles--social construction, totality, contradiction, and praxis. The organization is seen as a concrete, multileveled phenomenon beset by contradictions that continuously undermine its existing features. (Author/IRT)
