基于对2000年互联网泡沫破灭后在以色列举行的一次全领域高科技会议的深入分析，我研究了故事在机构创业话语动态中的作用和用法。代表该领域不同群体的行为者参与构建了一个反映并进一步加强既定体制秩序的危机共同故事。与此同时，同样的行为者也各自讲述了一个相反的指控故事，将危机归咎于其他团体，并呼吁改变体制秩序。因此，制度企业家精神的核心是通过故事的叙述来创造意义。对2000年高科技产业衰落的三种描述反映了两种努力的同时：一种是维持制度秩序的合作，另一种是可能破坏制度秩序的挑战。这两种相互矛盾的取向之间的微妙平衡是通过对显性和隐性意义的巧妙操纵实现的，而这种平衡是通过使用故事作为制度企业家精神的媒介和资源而实现的。
Based on an in-depth analysis of a field-wide high-tech conference held in Israel after the dot-com crash of 2000, I examine the role and usage of stories in the discursive dynamics of institutional entrepreneurship. Actors who represented different groups in the field were engaged in constructing a shared story of the crisis that reflected and further strengthened the established institutional order. Concurrently, the same actors were also each telling a counter-story of indictment, blaming other groups for the crisis and calling for changes in the institutional order. Institutional entrepreneurship, then, centered on efforts of sense-making through the narration of stories. The three accounts of the high-tech 2000 fall reflected simultaneous efforts of both collaboration in maintaining the institutional order and contestation that could potentially disrupt it. The delicate balance between these contradictory orientations was carried out by the skillful manipulation of explicit and implicit meanings, which was made possible by the use of stories as the medium of, and resource for, institutional entrepreneurship.
