这一章表明,米歇尔·福柯是一个讨厌的学者的组织,虽然是一个富有成效的。福柯否认对组织的研究,但他的工作从根本上关注的是对生活的管理,这是组织学者的核心关注点。本章通过考察福柯试图实现的四种位移来探讨这种张力:第一,从问“为什么”类型的问题转向问“如何”类型的问题;第二,对主体性的关注,摒弃了主体和客体的伦理两极分化,转而分析主体的能力和属性构成的历史变化方式;第三,注重做法而不是组织,关注分析各种做法的组合,看它们是如何产生的,以及它们是如何随着时间的推移而稳定下来的;第四,注重多元的合理性。然后,它探讨了“福柯效应”在组织研究。
This chapter suggests that Michel Foucault is a nuisance for scholars of organizations, albeit a productive one. Foucault disavowed the study of organizations, yet his work was fundamentally concerned with the administering of lives, a central concern of scholars of organizations. The chapter explores this tension by examining four displacements that Foucault sought to effect: first, a move from asking ‘why’ type questions to ‘how’ type questions; second, a concern with subjectivity that discards the ethical polarization of subject and object in favour of an analysis of the historically varying ways in which the capacities and attributes of subjects are constituted; third, a focus on practices rather than organizations, and a concern to analyse sets or assemblages of practices in terms of how they emerge and how they are stabilized over time; fourth, a focus on rationalities in the plural. It then examines the ‘Foucault effect’ in organization studies.
