Preferred term

historical analysis of organization theory  

Definition

  • Max Weber's work in 1947 was initially influential in shaping the sociological analysis of organizations. It offered a unifying frame—the theory of bureaucracy—within which to research organizational processes and, unlike early management theory, did not offer prescriptive and self-contradictory principles.
