Tiivistelmä: | An organization structure is interpreted as a correspondence between three analytical levels that simultaneously constrain and stimulate behaviour: infrastructure, sociostructure, and superstructure. Structuring results from a process of convergence across levels that produces distinct configurations and provides a record of the organization's historical development. The dynamics of convergence is explored through a competitive case study of two organizations in the publishing industry. Both firms developed into stable structural configurations that were uniquely produced from historically specific accommodations. |
