85: Carnegie-Mellon Series #6 -- Organizations (Part 2)

We conclude our discussion of March and Simon’s Organizations with a look to the present day to see how well the book’s ideas have withstood the test of time. Are they helpful for explaining “novel” phenomena or ways of organizing? Have today’s qualitative methods made it feasible for researchers to study the more untestable propositions? How can one use the book to analyze practical problems of organizations?
