TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a differentiated understanding of hierarchy as either formal or informal and applied this analytical framework to several types of organization, including representative democratic and network organizations, and found that the persistence of hierarchy in different types of organizations can be explained by different dynamic relationships between formal and informal hierarchy.
Abstract: This paper addresses the paradox that despite all organizational change towards flatter and postmodern organizations, hierarchical order is quite persistent. We develop a differentiated understanding of hierarchy as either formal or informal and apply this analytical framework to several types of organization. The analysis reveals that hierarchy is much more widespread than thought; in particular, postmodern, representative democratic and network organizations are much less ‘alternative’ and ‘hierarchy-free’ than their labels and common understanding may suggest. The main argument is that the persistence of hierarchy in different types of organization can be explained by different dynamic relationships between formal and informal hierarchy.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors examined the linkage between FDI, trade openness, capital formation, and economic growth rates in Bangladesh over a period 1986 to 2008 using time series analysis and found that the volume of FDI and level of capital formation had significant positive effect on changes in real GDP.
Abstract: This paper examines the linkage between FDI, trade openness, capital formation, and economic growth rates inBangladesh over a period 1986 to 2008 using time series analysis. All variables are found stationary at firstdifferencing both at constant and constant plus trend level under the ADF and PP stationary tests. TheJohansen-Juselius procedure is applied to test the cointegrating relation between variables followed by a vectorerror correction model. The empirical results trace a strong long-run equilibrium relationship between GDPgrowth rates and the explanatory variables with unidirectional casual flows. The volume of FDI and level ofcapital formation are found to have significant positive effect on changes in real GDP. The degree of tradeopenness unleashes negative but diminishing influence on GDP growth rates. We conclude that Bangladeshshould formulate FDI-led polices and ensure higher degree of capital formation to enhance her economic growthrates at large.
