On Celebrating the Organizational Identity Metaphor: A Rejoinder to Cornelissen
强烈反驳Cornelissen对组织身份隐喻的批评,指出其低估了隐喻在组织研究中的生成力,并错误地跨范式应用评估标准。
We disagree strongly with Cornelissen’s critique of the organizational identity metaphor on grounds that he: seriously underplays the generative strength of metaphor in the study of organizations; inappropriately applies the standards of assessment from one paradigm to the approaches of another; and raises false concerns about issues of self reference, reification and multilevel transference of concepts, among others.
