| Abstract: | Although the primary focus is on theorizing and theory over time, this also leads the author to question matters of method and methodology. The first section considers some of the study design issues raised by conducting a sequel study, noting that it was not possible to "repeat" the first study for a number of important reasons. The second section observes that while the earlier analytical metaphor of organizing as explaining endures, the nature of the explanations has changed: "strategic focus", "shareholder value" and "corporate governance" are now the contemporary watchwords although were unheard of in the interviews a decade earlier. |
