21 Jun 2017-pp 89-95
TL;DR: This study examines the process through which a new organization field is formed around an issue of Healthcare Information Technology in the case of Indian healthcare and finds that formation of a fieldaround an issue follows the discursive process.
Abstract: This study examines the process through which a new organization field is formed around an issue and identifies the mechanism behind that process. Adopting a single case method and discourse analysis tool, it examines the field formation around an issue of Healthcare Information Technology (HIT) in the case of Indian healthcare. Based on the data collected from the secondary sources, the study finds that formation of a field around an issue follows the discursive process and organizational field is the discursive function of issue, power and subjectivity .

TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that rational actors make their organizations increasingly similar as they try to change them, and describe three isomorphic processes-coercive, mimetic, and normative.
Abstract: What makes organizations so similar? We contend that the engine of rationalization and bureaucratization has moved from the competitive marketplace to the state and the professions. Once a set of organizations emerges as a field, a paradox arises: rational actors make their organizations increasingly similar as they try to change them. We describe three isomorphic processes-coercive, mimetic, and normative—leading to this outcome. We then specify hypotheses about the impact of resource centralization and dependency, goal ambiguity and technical uncertainty, and professionalization and structuration on isomorphic change. Finally, we suggest implications for theories of organizations and social change.

Abstract: КРИЗИС ВЛАСТИ В КАБАРДИНО-БАЛКАРИИ В АВГУСТЕ 1991 ГОДА Статья посвящена исследованию влияния путча 1991 г. на этнополитическую обстановку в Кабардино-Балкарской Республике. Анализируется процесс "включения" национального фактора в разгоревшееся политическое противоборство, вылившееся в кризис власти. Авторами впервые сформулирована и обоснована мысль о том, что события августа 1991 г. привели к объединению к тому времени уже нелояльных по отношению друг к другу национальных движений "титульных" народов Кабардино-Балкарии, что нашло выражение в выдвижении общего требования отставки первых лиц республиканской власти.
