Breaking new ground in research on temporary organizations, this
volume of Research in the Sociology of Organizations brings
together papers that examine how temporary organizations navigate
the tensions and deal with the paradoxes that are the consequences
of temporal limitation. This volume explores diverse forms of
temporary organizations including: animation festivals, cultural
celebrations, unconferences, start-up accelerators, humanitarian
emergency response, strategic initiatives, projects and
megaprojects, project portfolios and networks of projects. This
volume uses 3 key questions to unify this empirical diversity: 1.
The pace and rhythm of temporary organizing: how do conflicting
temporal norms shape work and life in temporary organizations? 2.
What are the tactics and practices that temporary organizations
develop when dealing with the tensions and paradoxes they confront?
3. When relying for resources and working on behalf of permanent
organizations, how do temporary organizations deal with the
tensions between attachment to, and detachment from, permanent
organizations.
