At the core of organizational power projects are organizational elites, whose politics and projects are examined extensively in the book. The book concludes by examining the implications for organizations and their elites of the trends, tendencies, and theories considered in the course of the book.This book is required reading for graduate students and researchers in areas such as organizational, social and political theory. 472 pp. Englisch.
