Knowledge and Interests in Organization Studies: A Conflict of Interpretations
探讨组织研究中关于兴趣动机的冲突观点,提出四种解释基础(知识作为工具或话语,基于信任或怀疑)及其产生的四种研究模型,并引出六场关于兴趣本质的辩论。
Why are there conflicting views of the interests which motivate the study of organizations? We contend that the sources of conflict are four interpretive bases: knowledge is viewed as an instrument or as a discourse, and knowledge is constructed on the basis of trust or suspicion. The interplay of interpretive bases produces competing models of organization studies: Social Innovation, Critique, Language Game of Truth and Hermenuetics. In turn, the four models inspire six debates on the nature of interests which incite the study of organizations.
