On the Theory of Organizational Path Dependence: Clarifications, Replies to Objections, and Extensions
回顾了2009年获奖论文“打开组织路径依赖的黑箱”的后续影响，回应批评并基于新理论洞见重新审视原有命题，最后提出未来研究方向。
This article reflects on our article of 2009, “Organizational path dependence: Opening the black box,” which received the Academy of Management Review’s Decade Award in 2019. We review how the article has been used in subsequent research, discuss the criticism it has elicited, and reexamine our original propositions in light of theoretical insights gained since the text’s publication. We also explore the linkages to related concepts, such as complexity, hierarchy, agency, and expansion. We conclude by outlining new avenues for research on and enhancing the theory of organizational path dependence.
