Welcome
This website provides a platform for scholars interested in new institutionalism - one of the leading theories in organization studies worldwide.
On this platform you can find out more about current developments, both in terms of theory and empirical research, details of workshops and conferences, recent publications, literature etc. It also enables you to become more closely networked with scholars to promote the exchange of ideas and research cooperation.
If you are interested in becoming part of the network and contributing to it, all you need to do is to become a member. You will then be able to find out more about „people“ - who is involved, "meetings" and relevant literature.
If you would like to become a member, then simply register. Within a short time, you will receive your own account for the members area.
