Summary:"Barbara Czarniawska, renowned organization theorist, offers in A Theory of Organizing a processual view of organizing, and develops a theory based on multiple field studies and recent theoretical insights. The author demonstrates that the global economy and its ally, information technology, have paved the way for organizing across corporate and national borders. Mergers and acquisitions are now mundane events, and markets have become more virtual than ever, even as ideas that travel across the world, and are translated into local practices." "This book will challenge and stimulate organizational theoreticians and organizational practitioners. It will also prove lively reading for academics from a range of backgrounds, including sociology, business administration, and the political sciences."--Jacket.
