Among the most widely cited books in the social sciences, "The External Control of Organizations" has long been required reading for any student of organization studies. The book, reissued on its 25th anniversary as part of the Stanford Business Classics series, includes a new preface written by Jeffrey Pfeffer, which examines the legacy of this influential work in current research and its relationship to other theories. The "External Control of Organizations" explores how external constraints affect organizations and provides insights for designing and managing organizations to mitigate these constraints. All organizations are dependent on the environment for their survival. As the authors contend, "it is the fact of the organization's dependence on the environment that makes the external constraint and control of organizational behavior both possible and almost inevitable." Organizations can either try to change their environments through political means or form interorganizational relationships to control or absorb uncertainty. This seminal book established the resource dependence approach that has informed so many other important organization theories.

看到常用标签里有“经济学”，不过其实只是pfeffer和salancik用了计量的方法做了些回归嘛。power theory真是最直接的大白话了，所以理论小弱还是能理解的

评分很经典的组织管理的著作，从基础开始，而后达到了很好的高度。定性分析定量分析都有所涵盖，角度也比较多样。个人不太满意的地方是选例，不少例子都不是很恰当，也有很多是限制于社会背景，我们作为外国人不好理解。另外书中也难免有typo…有空再补笔记吧…
评分完全用外部资源依赖而解释组织行为变化实在有点窄；而且就算能解释变迁，也不完全能解释为什么是这样变而不是那样变，毕竟谁能做决定和组织内部的权力关系相关也和决策者本人相关。
