Comparative Analysis of Complex Organizations, Rev. Ed. by Amitai Etzioni
This important book “classifies organizations on the basis of organizational properties and systemically examines variations amount different types of organization” (American Sociological Review). Bringing light to a neglected field, A Comparative Analysis of Complex Organizations presents models for the analysis of various organizational types and examines how they are constructed. Primarily discussing the relationship between compliance and each variable it introduces, this book works as a cornerstone for the comparative analysis of organizations.
