When do Interlocks Matter? Institutional Logics and the Diffusion of Multiple Corporate Governance Practices
研究了制度及其逻辑在初始扩散后如何延伸，发现组织采用某制度逻辑下的实践后，更可能采用该逻辑下的后续实践，而不受网络联系的影响。基于加拿大董事会改革相关治理实践的扩散数据提供证据。
Despite the wealth of research on the origins of institutions, little is known about how institutions and their underlying logics are extended following initial diffusion. We argue that institutional extension happens through multiwave diffusion of related practices that is such that an organization's adoption of practices from an institutional logic implies its acceptance of the logic. This makes organizational adoption of subsequent practices sharing the same logic more likely, irrespective of these practices' adoptions by the organization's network contacts. We show evidence of such effects though analyzing the diffusion of governance practices related to the logic of board reform in Canada.
