Description
Explorations in Organizations presents readers with contemporary issues in the study of organizations, and introduces the paths down which tomorrow's organizational scholarship might travel. A collection of recent papers by or co-authored by the eminent James G. March, the book consists of five sections: exploring theories of organizational action; novelty in organizational adaptation; institutions and the logic of appropriateness; the history of organization studies; and uses of literature in the study of organizations.
Each section begins with a new essay by a scholar whose work has focused on the theme explored in that part of the book. These introductory essays not only introduce and tie together the papers that follow, but also serve to add additional voices to the volume in order to deepen the discussion within it.

Olsen, Herbert A. Simon, and Bilian Ni Sullivan for their collaboration on the articles and their willingness to have them appear here. I am also much in debt to Mie Augier, Daniel Levinthal, Ellen O'Connor, Johan P. Olsen, and Zur Shapira for writing introductory essays to the various sections of the book.
