Precarious Values and Mundane Innovations: Enrollment Management in American Liberal Arts Colleges
基于塞尔兹尼克的制度主义，研究美国文理学院中招生管理这一看似无害的创新如何侵蚀教育价值观，并分析组织与环境因素如何影响其采纳程度。
Drawing primarily from Selznick's institutionalism, we make a general case for renewed attention to the “mundane administrative arrangements” that underlie the organizational capacity for value realization and a particular case for the study of value-subverting management innovations. An empirical study of “enrollment management” in liberal arts colleges reveals this ostensibly innocuous innovation's value-undermining effects and identifies the organizational and environmental factors that have made these venerable organizations more or less susceptible to its adoption.
