Tiivistelmä: | This article deals with the behavioral revolution in organization studies of the 1950s, aiming to unravel, through Foucaultian 'eventalization' the conditions that made the 'behavioural sciences' emerge at that historical juncture. It is argued that the relationship of the Ford Foundation with the Graduate School of Industrial Administration and concomitantly with Herbert Simon, James March etc. was firmly embedded in the Cold War politics of the time. These relationships ... contributed to functionalism and positivism being institutionalized in the disciplines. |
