Preferred term
new institutionalism
Definition(s)
- Nearly three decades ago, the first neoinstitutional arguments were formulated by John Meyer with colleagues such as Brian Rowan in 1977 and Richard Scott in 1983, and by Sharon Zucker in 1977. This new orientation proposed that formal organizational structure reflected not only technical demands and resource dependencies, but was also shaped by institutional forces, including rational myths, knowledge legitimated through the educational system, and by the professions, public opinion, and the law, as Meyer and Rowan argued.
