The second edition of Organizational Theory in Higher Education is
a comprehensive and accessible treatment of organizational theory
and higher education administration. Noted scholar Kathleen Manning
offers a fresh take on the models and lenses through which higher
education can be viewed by presenting a full range of
organizational theories, from traditional to current. Chapters
discuss the disciplinary foundation, structure, metaphor,
assumptions, characteristics, and other elements of each
organizational theory and conclude with cases highlighting
practical applications. Questions for discussion are provided at
the end of each chapter and embedded in the cases to assist the
reader in making connections to their practice. Manning's rich,
interdisciplinary treatment enables readers to gain a full
understanding of the perspectives that operate on a college campus
and ways to adopt effective practice in the context of new and
continuing tensions, contexts, and challenges. New to this Edition:
revised chapters with updated material and new references that
reflect current higher education issues including climate change; a
new chapter on Institutional Theory, an expanded Feminist and
Gendered chapter, and an enhanced Spirituality chapter; new cases
throughout to address contemporary issues, and a broader range of
institutional types including Historically Black and
Hispanic-Serving institutions and 2-year institutions; additional
theoretical topics including critical race theory, queer theory,
and contemplative practices; updated and enhanced questions for
discussion and recommended readings.
