A STRUCTURATION THEORY OF INTERORGANIZATIONAL COORDINATION CASES IN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT

A STRUCTURATION THEORY OF INTERORGANIZATIONAL COORDINATION CASES IN ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT Previous research, at once more abstract and more concrete, has neglected the intermediate level of interorganizational coordination IOC coordination structures. This theory of IOC identifies coordination structures, ranging from the liaison to markets and interorganizational networks, at various levels of organizational generality and complexity. Coordination structures invoke informal and formal links, based on hierarchy command, market exchange, or associationsolidarity trust. IOC and its related coordination structures are the result of organizations' perceiving their interdependence. IOC cases in environmental management illustrate the theory and its implications for organizational analysis and institutional design. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png The International Journal of Organizational Analysis Emerald Publishing

Abstract

Previous research, at once more abstract and more concrete, has neglected the intermediate level of interorganizational coordination IOC coordination structures. This theory of IOC identifies coordination structures, ranging from the liaison to markets and interorganizational networks, at various levels of organizational generality and complexity. Coordination structures invoke informal and formal links, based on hierarchy command, market exchange, or associationsolidarity trust. IOC and its related coordination structures are the result of organizations' perceiving their interdependence. IOC cases in environmental management illustrate the theory and its implications for organizational analysis and institutional design.
