Review
"Actor-Network Theory (ANT) started with stories about strange worlds inhabited by scallops, microbes or Portuguese caravels sharing their lives with human beings. It is now a wide field of research explicitly open to new contributions, translations and problematizations. This innovative book from Scandinavia writes a new chapter in the ANT saga. Based on a series of field studies, it shows very convincingly how this now widely recognized approach might be helpful to revisit notions like power, organization and market." Michel Callon, CSI, Ecole des Mines de Paris
Product Description
Actor-Network Theory (ANT) is rapidly making its mark as a practical, challenging and intriguing tool for studying organization. Its unique approach to connecting people, artifacts, institutions and organizations enables it to shed light on complexities that so far have escaped works in organization theory. In this book a number of European and American scholars apply ANT in the study of various aspects of organization, including technology, organizational change, routines, virtual organization, strategy, power, market mechanisms, consumer behaviour, public administration and knowledge management.

Taken together, the chapters offer new and intriguing ways of organizational theorizing. The book is suitable for researchers and higher level students, and it serves as an excellent primer for those wanting to learning about ANT through the lens of organization theory.
