| Abstract: | This article investigates university-based business schools in the UK. It is argued that the result of the institutional pressures has changed business schools isomorphic and diminished the potential voice of business school research in social and economic issues. It is proposed that schools have choices in the ways they might adapt their strategies to face normative, coercive and mimetic pressures. It is also proposed that business schools should adopt a wider scholarly lens and turn its theoretical perspectives and empirical research toward "big" social and economic issues. |
