| Synopsis: |
The theory of path dependence continues to attract great interest in a wide range of disciplines, including business studies, organization research, economic history, political science, and regional studies. An increasing number of scholars have started to use this theory for studying organizational inertia, strategic persistencies, institutional rigidities, and regional lock-ins. Most recently, even issues of un-locking and creating path dependencies have been addressed. This book presents a selection of chapters that have been presented and discussed at a series of conferences including the Academy of Management (AoM), European Group of Organization Studies (EGOS), and the European Institute of Advanced Studies in Management (EIASM). |
