The Multimedia Encyclopedia in Organization Theory. From Taylor to Today (2011), E. Friedberg (ed)
DVD-ROM MAC/PC
Erhard Friedberg is the leader of one of the most ambitious and successful attempts to make organizational studies accessible, systematic, and fun at the same time. His Multimedia Encyclopedia in Organization Theory. From Taylor to Today (2011) is more than an encyclopedia: it is an experiment which link images, voices, faces, documents, archives, in order to place the student or the reader in front of several “layers” of knowledge and learning possibilities. The beginner will find a whole set of instruments and living experiences talking about the most interesting and basic issues of organization theory. The expert will find a valuable set of information, documents, articles, images, precious to continuing her or his research or teaching activities. “From Tailor to Today 2011” is no doubt a monumental work which reminds us that organization studies is and has been a living and passionate creation of real persons.

Erhard Friedberg’s Multimedia encyclopedia in organization theory is unique. Its 240 video clips offer a structured encounter with those who made organization theory. 31 of the most eminent organization theorists recount their explorations and findings, and illustrate their reasoning in interpreting the unexpected results of their seminal field-studies. Some 300 articles by 59 American and European authors document the chronology of 17 approaches to the study of organization, providing an overview of the state of the art in the discipline. Together, these materials paint a concrete and lively picture of the progressive construction of this body of knowledge from Taylor to today.

SEPTEMBRE 2011 - PROFESSOR FRIEDBERG INTERVIEWS JOHN MEYER
  |
|
 John Meyer is one of the initiators and his work one of the main sources of inspiration of the neo-institutional approach in sociology. In a series of publications all through the Seventies and the first half of the Eighties which are based on a series of empirical studies on schools and education as an institution, he proposed a theory of society in which the latter is conceptualized as an ensemble of skills, knowledge, and culture. This ensemble constitutes a matrix (the analogy with the” script” in cinema is often used) on the basis of which and out of which actors construct themselves and in which activities are inscribed.

MAY 2011 - PROFESSOR FRIEDBERG INTERVIEWS JOHN PADGETT
|
|
 John Padgett has published on the topics of organization theory, social network analysis, federal budgeting, plea bargaining, and stochastic processes. But he is best known for his path-breaking work on the Medici and Renaissance Florence. During the past 20years, he has constructed a unique relational database about social network evolution in Renaissance Florence between the years 1300-1500. This database allows him to trace empirically the co-evolution of multiple, cross-cutting social networks over time and to use this knowledge to better understand the emergence of modern markets as well as of the organizational innovations of which Renaissance Florence was the theater.
