Organizations and Society

What are the costs and consequences of living in a society that has undergone an "organizational revolution"? To what extent is social life in the 21st century dominated by the rational control that is characteristic of bureaucratic organizations large and small? Organizations and Society addresses these broader human questions with a critical perspective, while at the same time explaining the main concepts and theories in the field. Students of all interests-those who wish to run organizations someday, study them, or simply understand their importance in the contemporary social order-will benefit from the insights and cogent arguments of this text for undergraduate classrooms.
