This Element reviews the first 120 years of organization theory,
examining its development from the sociology of organizations and
management theory. It is initially organized around two streams of
thought. The first is found in political economy and the sociology
of organizations, with an emphasis on understanding the new
organizations that arose in the late nineteenth and early twentieth
centuries. The second derives from practitioner-scholars, whose aim
was to provide theories and approaches to managing these new
organizations. The Element then shows how each of the streams of
understanding and managing came together to produce organization
theory. In doing this, it also describes how the institutional
frameworks in academic associations, academic centres and journals
came out of these approaches and how they strengthened the
development of organization theory.
