数字化创新是工作的未来。数字技术、工作、沟通和组织的持续和相互关联的变革提出了重要的理论问题。整合重组为基础的创新理论和传播的制度理论，这篇文章贡献了一个新的框架，指定宏观层面的制度和数字创新之间的理论联系：社会行动者通过（a）注意力分配，（B）的感觉制造，（c）外部，跨越边界的网络谈判的紧张局势所产生的多重制度逻辑。该框架可以通过以下方式推进传播研究：（a）调和相互冲突和不确定的实证研究结果;（B）有针对性地开展研究工作;（c）回应对传播学术未能解决社会背景的批评。通过关注数字创新以及社会结构和沟通行动之间的相互作用，本文推进了关于工作未来的学术讨论，将数字创新概念化为一种制度和沟通成就。
Digital innovation is the future of work. The ongoing and interlinked transformation of digital technologies, work, communication, and organizing raises important theoretical questions. Integrating recombination-based innovation theory and institutional theory of communication, this article contributes a novel framework that specifies the theoretical linkages between macro-level institutions and digital innovation: Social actors negotiate tensions arising from multiple institutional logics through (a) attention allocation; (b) sensemaking; and (c) external, boundary-spanning networking. The framework can advance the study of communication by (a) reconciling conflicting and inconclusive empirical findings; (b) targeting research efforts; and (c) responding to critiques of communication scholarship as failing to address social contexts. By focusing on digital innovation and the interplay between societal structures and communicative action in shaping it, this article advances scholarly discussions on the future of work, conceptualizing digital innovation as an institutional as well as communicative accomplishment.
