Devolution of Researcher Care in Organization Studies and the Moderation of Organizational Knowledge
批判性评估了组织研究中研究者关怀的让渡如何调节知识发展，指出研究者为职业利益而改变个人关怀，并分析了制度逻辑如何强化这一过程，威胁知识发展。
We critically assess how the devolution of researcher care moderates knowledge development in organization studies. Defining researcher care as what scholars are concerned and passionate about, we consider the extent to which individual researchers lose their personal voice in researching organizations. This bounding of care by the research community is a reflection of the way that researchers knowingly alter their care in researching organizations to gain associated career and reputational benefits. We describe how the field’s institutional logic for researching organizations enables this devolution to take hold and how larger institutional forces reinforce how it progressively moderates organizational knowledge. We offer preliminary suggestions for addressing the devolution of researcher care in organization studies and ameliorating its threat to knowledge development.
