From Borrowing to Blending: Rethinking the Processes of Organizational Theory Building
反思组织理论中缺乏原创和激进理论的原因，指出过度依赖从其他学科“借用”理论的问题，并提出用“概念融合”的双向类比过程来替代单向借用，以促进理论创新。
Why are there not more original and radical theories in organization theory? To answer this question, we consider an overreliance on “theory borrowing” from other disciplines. We identify a dominant foreign to domestic to domesticated pattern of organization and management theory building and propose that the prevalent process of one-way borrowing from outside the discipline should be counterbalanced by a two-way analogical process of conceptual blending, which involves dissonant thinking, disanalogy, and counterfactual reasoning.
