New Knowledge Products As Bricolage: Metaphors and Scripts in Organizational Theory
提出知识生产的三种认识论脚本（演化、分化、拼凑），认为拼凑通过隐喻和概念组合催生新理论，而演化与分化因学术合法性更高主导理论呈现，并以组织制度主义为例说明。
We argue that three epistemic scripts of knowledge production—evolution, differentiation, and bricolage—underpin the production—that is, the conception and the presentation—of new organizational theories. Bricolage of concepts, empirical material, and metaphors enables the conception of new theories, whereas evolution and differentiation, carrying higher academic legitimacy, predominate in theory presentation. We develop an integrative model and provide an illustration from organizational institutionalism to delineate how metaphors and scripts influence organizational theory production.
