From Management as a Vocation to Management as a Scientific Activity: An Institutional Account of a Paradigm Shift
从制度视角分析管理教育从职业培训模式转向科学基础模式的历史过程，利用《管理学会期刊》文章检验科学管理概念的扩散模式，对理解管理教育演变有参考价值。
Using an institutional perspective, I analyze the historic circumstances surrounding the shift from a management as a vocation model to one that is scientifically based. I argue that prior to World War II, the management education field was fragmented but dominated by a vocational model in which specific trade practices and skills were taught. I trace how the institutional field shifted to embrace a model of management education that was tightly linked to empirical research. Using the Academy of Management Journal articles as a marker for this paradigm shift, I test hypotheses about the diffusion pattern of science-based concepts of management education.
