This title examines how contemporary currents in sociology and social theory have influenced the field of organisation studies. It aims to combat the tendency towards myopia in the organisation studies field, which encourages reliance on resources and references drawn from within the field and discourages scholars from going beyond these boundaries to find inspiration and ideas. The contributing authors show how sociologists and sociological concepts from the US and Europe have provided new insights into the functioning of organisations.

This book provides an authoritative and critical account of how key sociological theorists and research themes have influenced the field of organization studies. Used alongside The Oxford Handbook of Sociology and Organization Studies, this book will provide an account of the interaction between sociology and organization studies over time.
