Global norm‐making processes in contemporary multinationals
研究了跨国公司内部关于工作性质的全球规范制定过程，分析了正式与非正式元素在四个维度上的动态相互依赖关系，并通过两家跨国公司的四个案例展示了这种依赖如何在不同层级运作。
Abstract This paper contextualises and analyses global norm‐making concerning the nature of work within multinational companies. We develop a framework for analysing the relations between formal and informal elements of global norm‐making, stressing dynamic interdependencies between formality and informality on four dimensions: the codification of norms; enforcement mechanisms; the use of ‘platforms’ and aggregation with wider contexts. We investigate four cases of transnational norm‐making spaces across two multinationals, and analyse how these interdependencies work, both for norms and practices that emanate from the upper levels of corporate hierarchies, and those developed at lower levels among global operational teams.
