目的-本文的目的是质疑为什么当前对项目复杂性的思考忽视了对象在实现社会秩序和转型中的作用。一种替代的，但互补的，方法来解决项目的复杂性，借鉴演员网络理论（ANT），提供了纠正这种concerns.Design/方法/途径-目前对项目复杂性的思考进行了简要回顾，在第一部分，以说明为什么非人类被淡化的原因。一个历史的案例研究，斯凯岛公路桥梁项目，动员解释，并制定，ANT的角度来看，项目的复杂性，并回应这种complications.Findings - ANT开发帐户的项目复杂性，通过强调非人类的作用，影响从业人员如何注册，响应和稳定项目的复杂性。前端规划和利益相关者分析被证明只是四个时刻的一个狭窄的元素，通过这些时刻，参与者理解和稳定项目的复杂性。
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to question why current thinking towards project complexity ignores the role of objects in achieving social order and transformation. An alternative, but complementary, approach to address project complexities, drawing upon actor‐network theory (ANT), is offered to redress this concern.Design/methodology/approach – Current thinking towards project complexity is briefly reviewed in the first section to illustrate the reasons why nonhumans are downplayed. An historical case study, the Skye road bridge project, is mobilized to explain, and develop, an ANT perspective on project complexities, and responses to such complexities.Findings – ANT develops accounts of project complexity by highlighting the role of nonhumans in influencing how practitioners register, respond and stabilize project complexities. Front‐end planning and stakeholder analysis is shown to be only one narrow element of four moments through which actors apprehend and stabilize project complexities.Resea...
