| Tiivistelmä: | The paper develops a theoretical framework that situates institutional entrepreneurship by drawing from Gramsci's concept of hegemony to understand the contingent stabilization of organizational fields, and by employing his discussion of the Modern Prince as the collective agent who organizes and strategizes counter-hegemonic challenges. The framework makes three contributions: (1) it characterizes the interlaced material, discursive, and organizational dimensions of field structure, (2) it argues that strategy must be examined more rigorously as the mode of action by which institutional entrepreneurs engage with field structures, (3) it argues that institutional entrepreneurship reveals a 'strategic face of power'. |
