N2  - "Sociology of Organizations: Structures and Relationships is a timely and unique collection of both classic and contemporary studies of organizations. Designed around competing theoretical frameworks, this cutting-edge book examines organizations with attention to structure and objectives, interactions among members and among organizations, the relationship between the organization and its environment and the social significance or social meaning of the organization. This volume sheds light on some of the most interesting changes and challenges facing organizations today: the integration of new media, the implementation of diversity and inclusion, and the promotion of sustainable workforce engagement. Lively and provocative, this textbook is theoretically rigorous, disciplinarily informed and representative of heterogeneity within organization studies." -- Publisher's description; A collection of both classic and contemporary studies of organizations that is designed around competing theoretical frameworks, this book examines organizations with attention to structure and objectives interactions among members and among organizations, the relationship between the organization and its environment, and the social significance or social meaning of the organization
