Giving Meaning to Everyday Work After Terrorism
研究了恐怖袭击后人们如何从日常工作中寻找积极意义，整合了工作意义、意义建构和灾难文化反应理论，为实证检验提供基础。
Global terrorism in the early 21 st century appears to be an inevitable part of organizational life. Even among people not personally injured in an attack, the immediate aftermath can be a period of hardship, stress and sensemaking. This paper develops theory about how people give meaning to their work after terrorism. In contrast to views of everyday work as something that loses significance in times of such tragedy, I outline the conditions under which individuals are also likely to find positive meaning in it. Doing so, I integrate varied findings about workplace responses to terrorism and provide a basis for empirical testing rooted in theories of work meaning, sensemaking and the cultural response to disaster. The paper concludes with implications for research and practice.
