Tiivistelmä: | Among institutional theorists there has lately been a movement towards a notion that isomorphic institutional change is precipitated by significant events or "jolts". This paper argues that in doing so theorists have tended to move away from the social constructivist roots of institutional theory towards an understanding which implies the emergence of new organizational forms or practices in response to functional imperatives. In this context, the ongoing institutional change is examined from photography to digital imaging. The analysis suggests that attributing institutional change to a single event or "jolt" leads to a flawed understanding of institutional change processes. |
