About this ebook

The world is always in flux. Stability is only a product of the moment and needs to be actively accomplished. Recognising that Routine Dynamics research has been at the forefront of this movement to understand the balance between stability and change in organizations, this volume of Research in the Sociology of Organizations delves into the realm of organizational routines within a continuously evolving society.

Elaborating on themes such as temporality, improvisation, process and multiplicity, power and political dynamics, and scale, the contributors provide a comprehensive exploration of routines in a world marked by constant change. The papers provide readers with a deep understanding of how routines adapt, evolve, and persist in the face of flux.

Exploring the power of routines in navigating our increasingly complex world, this volume argues that routines are as much engines of change as they are of stability, and that organizations are in a position to benefit from both.
