Managing Garbage Can Hierarchies
将垃圾桶理论操作化为一个随机过程模型，用于传统韦伯式官僚制情境，分析模糊性如何影响决策并推导管理启示。
Thanks are due to Robert Axelrod, James G. March, Steven A. Marglin, Harrison C. White, and especially to Michael D. Cohen for their helpful comments. Support has been provided by NSF Grant SOC7624394. This article operationalizes garbage can theory into a stochastic process model for the case of a traditional Weberian bureaucracy. The purposes of the model are two: (1) to illustrate how ambiguity may impinge on decision making within a structural setting more familiar to classical organization theorists, and (2) to derive the managerial implications of garbage can theory.
