On one hand, marginals are complex organizational systems. On the
other hand, they are an example of elegant, applied organizational
operations. In The Marginal Organization, Tafoya focuses on
organizations often described as part of an informal economy,
informal sector, underground economy, or unofficial economy. He
presents these systems first as organizations and then as
organizations operating outside of society's mainstream, as
marginal organizations. He outlines a means for studying marginals
so that underlying behavioral patterns can be identified, examined
and, if needed, addressed.
A simple approach to a study of marginal organizations might
conclude they exist simply to meet the needs of their stakeholders
- they do not. Thinking of marginals as competing in the context of
other organizations allows the reader the opportunity to explore
new themes, such as when and how marginals may be more inventive
and innovative that mainstream organizations, and what one might
conclude about illegal marginals like drug pushers and prostitutes.
Tafoya's newest contribution to the field of organizational study
is not to be missed.
