A Rational Basis for Criticisms of Organizational Economics: A Reply to Barney
回应巴尼对唐纳森的批评,指出组织经济学的批评部分源于其可能对管理理论产生有害影响,并质疑其与传统管理理论的融合可能性,讨论了其动机模型的狭隘性及对系统层面分析和管理层的偏见。
Contrary to Barney (1990) in his reply to Donaldson (1990), this article points out that the strength of criticism of organizational economics lies in part in apprehensions about its deleterious effects upon management theory. The article also argues that there is continuing reason to doubt that organizational economics readily lends itself to synthesis with traditional management theory. The issues of the narrowness of the motivational model in organizational economics and its offensiveness and the bias against systems-level analysis and against management are discussed.
