Acronyms in cyberspace - “org”, “edu”, “gov” or “com” - demonstrate that societies work through organisations – small and large, networked and hierarchic, old and new.
Individuals join or leave, fit or clash, establish, defend and change them. Study of organisations and their human members cuts across two large areas of interest in the sciences of management, theory of organisations and human resource management and mobilises three disciplines, economics (especially institutional), sociology (especially organisational), and psychology (especially social). Welcome to our research profile. Research is carried on by a mathematician interested in change and governance, two economists interested in Chinese recipes for capitalist growth or in economics of organisation, by sociologist interested in cross-cultural management and by a social psychologist interested in small group relations. We are where the action is and where the actors are.
