Abstract:Karl Weick's sensemaking perspective has been criticised for a neglect of the role of larger social and historical contexts in sensemaking. The authors address this critique by showing how institutional context is a necessary part of sensemaking. It is described how three specific mechanisms - priming, editing and triggering - bring institutional context into processes of sensemaking, beyond a more conventional notion of internalized cognitive constraint.
