Organisationstheorie (Seminar) Termingruppe 3 Blockseminar 23.-24.05. Hoppe

This course is designed to cover some major contemporary perspectives in organization theory. It is open to any student with some previous exposure to a theory course. We will consider topics that are relevant not only for sociology, but for management, geography, and political economy. The first section updates and in some cases globalizes the classics. The second section toggles between methods and theory while promoting various possibilities for research designs. The third section explores how gender, race, and globalization are always present in organizations, even if they are not always accounted for. The evaluation will be based on an in-class presentation. The course is designed in a block format.
