組織とは何でしょうか。有史以前の人々の暮らしの中で、最初に作られた組織は家庭であり部族でした。現代の私たちも、家族や会社などさまざまな組織の中に属し、それぞれの目的の達成のため、日々努力をしています。『Organization Theory: Modern, Symbolic, and Postmodern Perspectives(Hatch組織論ー3つのパースペクティブ)』のメアリー・ジョー・ハッチが、そのような組織の在り方や将来の姿などについてのさまざまな考え方を丁寧に解説します。
Most of us recognize that organizations are everywhere. You meet them on every street corner in the form of families and shops, study in them, work for them, buy from them, pay taxes to them. But have you given much thought to where they came from, what they are today, and what they might become in the future? How and why do they have so much influence over us, and what influences them? How do they contribute to and detract from the meaningfulness of lives, and how might we improve them so they better serve our needs and desires?
This Very Short Introductions addresses all of these questions and considers many more. Mary Jo Hatch introduces the concept of organizations by presenting definitions and ideas drawn from the a variety of subject areas including the physical sciences, economics, sociology, psychology, anthropology, literature, and the visual and performing arts. Drawing on examples from prehistory and everyday life, from the animal kingdom as well as from business, government, and other formal organizations, Hatch provides a lively and thought provoking introduction to the process of organization.
