A Systems Paradigm of Organizational Adaptations to the Social Environment
提出一个系统范式来研究组织如何适应社会环境,区分了描述性、规范性和评价性研究,并定义了组织社会责任、社会响应等概念,还构建了一个影响工作生活质量和生命数量的组织社会响应分类模型。
In order to define generic research questions and to develop a typology of organizational social performance concepts, a systems paradigm for organizational adaptations to social environments is advocated. The active distinction between descriptive, normative, and evaluative inquiry is emphasized. Organizational social responsibility, social responsiveness, and social responses are defined in context of the systems paradigm. In addition, a categorical model of organizational social responses that directly affect the quality of work life and the quantity of life is outlined.
