The Dynamics of Standardization: Three Perspectives on Standards in Organization Studies
从组织研究视角审视标准与标准化现象，提出三种视角：组织的标准化、组织进行的标准化以及标准化作为组织的一种形式。通过综述现有研究，指出标准化动态方面被忽视，并识别各领域中的张力及其产生的动态，强调标准本质上是动态现象。
This paper suggests that when the phenomenon of standards and standardization is examined from the perspective of organization studies, three aspects stand out: the standardization of organizations, standardization by organizations and standardization as (a form of) organization. Following a comprehensive overview of existing research in these three areas, we argue that the dynamic aspects of standardization are under-represented in the scholarly discourse. Furthermore, we identify the main types of tension associated with standardization and the dynamics they generate in each of those three areas, and show that, while standards and standardization are typically associated with stability and sameness, they are essentially a dynamic phenomenon. The paper highlights the contributions of this special issue to the topic of standards as a dynamic phenomenon in organization studies and makes suggestions for future research.
