Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Meta-organizations organizations whose members are themselves organizations have emerged as important drivers of collective action to enact transformative change, changes that increase sustainability and responsibility in organizations, industries, and society as a whole.At the same time, the current challenges in business and society create a paradoxical moment where meta-organizations can expand, maintain, or shrink horizons of collective action for transformative change. They can expand horizons through framing, reframing, and organizing resistance; they maintain horizons by shaping internal and external structures; or meta-organizations can deliberately close them, preventing societal transformations towards just and sustainable orders. But when and how this happens remains understudied.Bringing together eleven contributions drawing on a rich diversity of theoretical perspectives and empirical contexts, this volume advances our understanding of the functioning and actions of meta-organizations in the face of a wide range of issues, including plastic pollution, tobacco regulation, gender and minority marginalization, social movements in the Global South, and other contemporary challenges. The volume highlights both the promises and the limitations of meta-organizations in expanding, maintaining, and shrinking horizons of collective action. It also calls for further research on how meta-organizations can be deliberately transformative, actively contributing to reordering the world, power dynamics, and relations in pursuit of sustainability and justice. This is critical reading for scholars interested in meta-organizations more broadly, as well as for those who specialize in advancing sustainability and responsibility. Papers draw on a rich diversity of theoretical perspectives and empirical contexts to advance understanding of the functioning and actions of meta-organizations in the face of a wide range of issues, including plastic pollution, tobacco regulation, gender and minority marginalization, social movements in the Global South.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Our contemporary societies are made of meta-organizations - organizations composed of other organizations. These range from international bodies like the International Whaling Commission, to national industry or business associations like the crowdfunding association Finance Participative France, to local associations such as fisheries co-management committees in Catalunya. Meta-organizations have become a defining feature of how actors coordinate, govern and make collective decisions. But what exactly makes them distinct, and why do they matter - both in theory and in practice This books delves into the importance, characteristics and diversity of meta-organizations. It explores four interrelated perspectives: meta-organizations as a widespread, heterogeneous empirical phenomenon in contemporary society, as a conceptual framework that raises specific methodological challenges, as part of a broader theory of decision-based social orders, and ultimately as arenas where hegemonic and counter-hegemonic dynamics may unfold.By bridging theory and practice, this work offers new insights into how meta-organizations operate, how they can be studied and understood, the problems they raise and what they can achieve under certain conditions - making it essential reading for practitioners, students, scholars, and policymakers alike.…
