报告简介：

paradox theory has recently emerged as an important conceptual and empirical framework for examining persistent, interrelated contradictions in organizations, spanning multiple levels of analyses from individuals to teams to organizations to fields to societies. unlike scholars engaged in most contemporary theories on organizations, paradox theory scholars have long emphasized that classical chinese philosophy, especially taoist philosophy, is a foundational element of the theory. however, integrating chinese and western perspectives on paradox theory, in practice, has been, in itself paradoxical. some of the challenges reflect differences between emic (i.e., from the culture’s perspective) and etic (i.e., from outside the culture’s perspective) approaches, which are commonly found in other literature. some issues, however, reflect underlying contradictions within the specific theory, such as the relationship between normative and descriptive features of the theory. other issues reflect the challenges of studying paradox empirically.in this seminar, aprof keller will introduce paradox theory and its application for studying organizations and related disciplines, discuss chinese and western approaches to the theory, the challenges in integrating the perspectives, and suggestions for how to move forward. the seminar is not only aimed at scholars interested in paradox theory, but also other scholars interested in how to integrate western and non-western theories of organizations.
