本文用一个世纪中期的文本来重新审视一个70年代末的概念,以回答一个新的世纪的问题。作者回到阿尔文·古尔冈的经典研究(1954年)工业官僚制的模式,重新审视“耦合”的概念,在当代制度主义的方式,从事以下问题:如何新的制度形式出现?基于Goullit对石膏矿工作的详细观察,作者认为耦合过程是制度形式出现的关键机制。将耦合视为一个动态过程和活动,有助于我们理解官僚制度是如何在石膏矿中出现的,以及它是如何与先前的权威和控制的社会秩序相互作用的。古尔冈对矿场耦合的描述是一个关于正式和非正式权力斗争以及意义冲突的故事,使当地制度形成的过程得到了深刻的体现。
This article uses a mid-century text to reengage a late-1970s concept to answer a new century question. The authors return to Alvin Gouldner’s classic (1954) study Patterns of Industrial Bureaucracy to reexamine the “coupling” concept in contemporary institutionalism in a way that engages the following question: How do new institutional forms emerge? Based on Gouldner’s detailed observations of work in a gypsum mine, the authors argue that coupling processes are key mechanisms in the emergence of institutional forms. Examining coupling as a dynamic process and activity helps us to understand how the institution of bureaucracy emerged in the gypsum mine and interacted with previous social orders of authority and control. Gouldner’s account of coupling at the mine is a story of formal and informal power struggles and active conflict over meaning, bringing the process of local institutional formation into sharp relief.
