Foi o que aconteceu com a maravilhosa gravação de Big Mama Thornton para Hound Dog em 1952, que vendeu bem, mas foi sucesso nacional só quando Elvis Presley gravou em 1956, tornando-a um de seus hinos.

Crossan. 2009; Journal of Management Studies - Wiley InterScience] This paper consolidates the state of academic research on innovation. Based on a systematic review of literature published over the past 27 years, we synthesize various research perspectives into a comprehensive multi-dimensional framework of organizational innovation – linking leadership, innovation as a process, and innovation as an outcome. We also suggest measures of determinants of organizational innovation and present implications for both research and managerial practice. inovacao administracao estudos_organizacionais orgtheory organization organizational_theory publicacao
• [Before Going Any Further With Social Capital: Eight Key Criticisms to Address] The concept of social capital emerged as an influential research theme in a number of disciplines in the past twenty years, as measured by the exponential growth in social capital literature throughout the 1990s and the early 2000s. While some of the assumptions of social capital theory have been challenged individually, its limitations as a unified concept have not been adequately tackled within the academic literature. This paper is an attempt to address this challenge, identifying eight key questions that the concept needs to tackle. The paper concludes that a stronger concept of social capital will emerge only by addressing these limitations explicitly and as a cluster rather than individually. socialcapital social_capital capital_social artigos publicacao

Para essa investigação, adotou-se metodologia qualitativa e amostra intencional selecionada por critérios. Sessenta e dois jovens, usuários e não-usuários de drogas, foram submetidos à entrevista semi-estruturada. Entre os fatores protetores, a estrutura familiar e a religiosidade foram os mais freqüentemente citados. Quanto à religiosidade, foram observados os seguintes resultados: 81% dos não-usuários acreditam e praticam uma religião; entre os usuários, apenas 13% encontram-se nessa condição, atribuindo à prática religiosa um meio de abandono às drogas. Conclui-se que a religião pode ser um fator protetor relevante na amostra estudada, atuando como apoio na estruturação familiar e como importante fonte de informações. admpublica administracao social religiao religion espiritualidade politicaspublicas publicadministration publicservices

Este é um esquecimento tão injusto quanto o utilitarismo de Singer se articula em dois níveis normativos; e o nível superior — o de ética normativa —, ainda que com a ajuda de factos empíricos relevantes, implica o nível inferior — o de ética prática. E como as convicções metaéticas de Singer, em especial as que dizem respeito à metodologia moral, têm uma influência decisiva nos resultados normativos, há mais uma razão de peso para evitar esse esquecimento. É por isso que este artigo destaca as ideias metaéticas e a teoria normativa de nível superior, na esperança de que ambas ajudem a compreender as ideias mais conhecidas e controversas de Singer. etica filosofia singer

• [Social Capital: A review from an ethics perspective] In this paper we extend previous reviews of the social capital literature to encompass an ethics perspective. First, we update previous reviews of social capital. Social capital continues to gain currency in both academic and practical circles, despite relatively little critical reflection on the implications of promoting this popular concept. Our work goes some way to rectifying this paucity in understanding what has been termed the ‗dark side‘ of social capital. In particular, we review the social capital concept from the perspective of three theories of business ethics: utilitarianism, justice and ethic of care. While the utilitarian perspective closely parallels accounts of social capital‘s rationale, the concept‘s operation is mirrored very closely by the assumptions underpinning the ethic of care, while the dark side of social capital is commonly given voice in justice-based critiques. We conclude by considering the implications of our analysis. socialcapital social_capital capital_social artigos etica system:filetype:pdf system:media:document
• [Civic Capital as the Missing Link] This chapter reviews the recent debate about the role of social capital in economics. We argue that all the difficulties this concept has encountered in economics are due to a vague and excessively broad definition. For this reason, we restrict social capital to the set of values and beliefs that help cooperation—which for clarity we label civic capital. We argue that this definition differentiates social capital from human capital and satisfies the properties of the standard notion of capital. We then argue that civic capital can explain why differences in economic performance persist over centuries and discuss how the effect of civic capital can be distinguished empirically from other variables that affect economic performance and its persistence, including institutions and geography. socialcapital social_capital ecn_civil capital_social capital_civil economia economics artigos system:filetype:pdf system:media:document
• [BBC - Thinking Allowed, Social Capital] A new concept came along, ‘social capital’, and it revolutionised the way people are governed and communities are planned. The only trouble is …it’s completely wrong. That is the contention of sociologist Ben Fine. He claims that ‘social capital’ is part of a mindset that sees everything as quantifiable assets akin to money or commercial resources. Are communities, neighbourhoods and the people more complicated than that? Laurie Taylor discusses an idea which has had a huge impact on social science and beyond, and asks whether it is time to abandon the assumption that people have social qualities that can be weighed and measured. David Halpern from the Institute for Government defends the concept. socialcapital social_capital capital_social podcast

• [Religiosity and Personal Well-Being: People Can Be Happy With or Without Religion] Despite all economic and social transitions that have occurred in the last centuries we still find that people go to church. Somehow religious beliefs have not vanished over time. Since there is no material reward for going to church or praying religiosity has to create utility through other means. It could raise peoples’ personal well-being. In this paper we use information from the World Values Survey about subjective happiness and life satisfaction. We relate this information to revealed religiosity and measure if religiosity makes people happier. We use different methods and also control for economic factors, family matters, health, and democracy. The key finding is that there seems to be a U-shaped relationship between personal well-being and religiosity, especially so for happiness. This result is consistent throughout all our estimations. Our analysis also gives hints that higher income might lead to higher subjective well-being. happiness felicidade artigos pesquisa academia religiao religion

• [Multilevel Challenges and Opportunities in Social Capital Research -- Payne et al., 10.1177/0149206310372413 -- Journal of Management] Social capital refers to the resources derived from social relationships. Although the concept of social capital has been applied at the individual, group, and organizational levels of analysis, researchers have yet to fully embrace social capital’s potential as a multilevel lens through which we might better understand management and organizational phenomena. With a central objective of advancing social capital’s potential as a multilevel theoretical perspective, the authors make two contributions to the management literature. First, the authors comprehensively review two decades of management research to highlight how social capital has been empirically applied across levels of analysis. Second, based on the shortcomings and challenges revealed through the literature review, the authors identify and discuss avenues for future multilevel research, including suggestions for both macro and micro researchers. socialcapital social_capital capital_social artigos pesquisa

• [The Relational Economy: A Buddhist and Feminist Analysis by Julie Nelson] Writings on the topic of Buddhism and economics seem to be characterized by two very different attitudes towards economic life. The first, drawing from historical Buddhist teachings in primarily pre-industrial contexts, takes a largely positive view of commerce. The second, in which a modern influence is considerably more apparent, is suspicious of economics at a "systemic" level, and takes an antagonistic stance towards contemporary corporations and markets. This essay argues that the latter view is based on an unhelpful assimilation of a modern Western belief – the belief that economic systems are non-relational – and proposes a richer understanding. economia economics economia-religiao reciprocidade religion religiao artigos

By allowing for an attendance effect, disaggregating Protestant denominations, and using a more extensive data set, probit models of the General Social Survey (GSS), 1975 through 2000, show that black Protestants, Pentecostals, fundamentalist Protestants, and Catholics, trust others less than individuals who do not claim a preference for a particular denomination. For conservative denominations the effect of religion is through affiliation, not attendance. In contrast, liberal Protestants trust others more and this effect is reinforced by attendance. The impact of religion on moderate Protestants is only through attendance, as frequency of attendance increases trust of others while the denomination effect is insignificant. artigos religiao religion trust sociology sociedade economia economia-religiao

His most recent book, The Sense of Dissonance: Accounts of Worth in Economic Life, was published by Princeton University Press in 2009. Stark studies how organizations and their members search for what is valuable. Dissonance – disagreement about the principles of worth – can lead to discovery. To study the organizational basis for innovation, he has carried out ethnographic field research in Hungarian factories before and after 1989, in new media start-ups in Manhattan before and after the dot.com crash, and in a World Financial Center trading room before and after the attack on September 11th. networks socecn sociology social_networks autores
• [Social capital - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia] The term "capital" is used by analogy with other forms of economic capital, as social capital is argued to have similar (although less measurable) benefits. However, the analogy with capital is misleading to the extent that, unlike traditional forms of capital, social capital is not depleted by use, but in fact depleted by non-use ("use it or lose it"). In this respect, it is similar to the now well-established economic concept of human capital. social_capital socialnetworks community socialcapital capital_social
• [What Does 'Social Capital' Mean?] The paper begins with an investigation of two metaphors central to the 'social capital' framework – 'glue' and 'capital'. Both are found to be inappropriate descriptions of the kinds of human relationships supposedly being alluded to by the term 'social capital'. While the inappropriateness of the term 'glue' is not a major threat to the discourse, the case of 'capital' is more serious. The rest of the paper is devoted to unravelling the connotations of 'capital' and the implications of applying it to relationships where the kinds of calculations necessary for sound economic performance have no place. The paper concludes by asking, but not answering, the question: Why, if 'social capital' cannot diminish poverty, is it being posited as a substitute for the welfare state, the only institution that does address poverty (if minimally)? socialcapital social_capital capital_social artigos

• [Interactionist Sociology] It traces its origins to the ideas put forward by American pragmatists George Herbert Mead, John Dewey, William James, and Charles Peirce. Sociologists working in this tradition, also known as symbolic interactionism or Chicago school sociology, track social structures and institutions all the way down to embodied, emotionally charged transactions between human agents. Interactionists explore face-to-face encounters in real life settings, using a wide range of ethnographic methods that allow sociologists to mesh with social reality and become participant observers in group life they study. The interactionism cyberlibrary was assembled by Dmitri Shalin to highlight scholarship, civic engagements, and avocational pursuits of sociologists working in this tradition. sociology academia

Hirschman in his seminal essay, Exit, Voice, and Loyalty from 1970. As a result, capitalism and its spirit were thought within an organizational paradigm. However, the integration of Hirschman’s theory was not unproblematic, since voice was excluded from the level of organizations, resulting in a failure to account for internal critique. By revisiting Hirschman’s theory, the context in which it developed, and by juxtaposing this with the theory of The New Spirit of Capitalism, it is argued that the spatial metaphors of ‘inside’ and ‘outside’ of capitalism should be revised, along with a revision of the analogy between capitalism and an organization. Ultimately, critique always comes from ‘within’. artigos orgtheory organization organizational_theory capitalismo

• [The Hidden Adam Smith in His Alleged Theology by Gavin Kennedy] Adam Smith’s views on religion in Moral Sentiments are generally regarded as consistent with, variously, Christianity, Protestantism, Deism, Providentialism or some version of Natural Religion. This paper examines the evidence from his earliest essay, known as The History of Astronomy (posthumous, 1795) and his major work, The Theory of Moral Sentiments, through editions 1 to 6, 1759-1790, and locates his hidden views within his known biographical details, the censorious religious environment of 18th-century Scotland, his and relationships with colleagues within the Scottish Enlightenment . From the evidence of his biography and his writings, Smith’s alleged theological beliefs are shown to be unsound, undermining such modern assertions. economia economics economia-religiao adamsmith religiao religion

The celebrities industry is undergoing, “mission creep”, or the expansion of an enterprise beyond its original goals (Hyde, 2009). The global internet is one of the major drivers of this phenomenon. The contribution of this paper is to analyse this global phenomenon and the potential implications for business ethics research. artigos etica business orgtheory organization organizational_theory
• [The Strength of Weak Ties - a Network Theory Revisited - Mark Granovetter | Twine] n this chapter I review empirical studies directly testing the hypotheses of my paper "The Strength of Weak Ties" (hereafter "SWT") and work that elaborates those hypotheses theoretically or uses them to suggest new empirical research not discussed in my original formulation. Along the way, I will reconsider various aspects of the theoretical argument, attempt to plug some holes, and broaden its base. socecn sociology
• [The Impact of Social Structure on Economic Outcomes - Mark Granovetter | Twine] Social structure, especially in the form of social networks, affects economic outcomes for three main reasons. First, social networks affect the flow and the quality of information. Second, social networks are an important source of reward and punishment. Third, trust emerges, if it does, in the context of a social network. socecn sociology

Esta dissertação discute capital social, que está diretamente relacionado com um velho problema da vida social: os dilemas da ação coletiva, isto é, como uma sociedade pode desenvolver-se por meio de confiança mútua entre seus membros e cooperação em torno de objetivos comuns, evitando os velhos problemas envolvendo bens públicos, quais sejam, os 'caronas' e as atitudes 'caçadoras de renda'. Apontam-se as 4 principais correntes de pensamento que buscam definir o conceito de capital social: o comunitarismo de Tocqueville e Putnam, o capital social como gerador de capital humano de Coleman, o capital social no mercado das trocas simbólicas de Bourdieu e, por último, o capital social como infra-estrutura social (instituições) de North. socialcapital social_capital capital_social admpublica administracao adm conceitos

• [Investigating Stakeholder Theory and Social Capital: CSR in Large Firms and SMEs] The concept of corporate social responsibility (CSR) has been widely investigated, but a generally accepted theoretical framework does not yet exist. This paper argues that the idiosyncrasies of large firms and SMEs explains the different approaches to CSR, and that the notion of social capital is a more useful way of understanding the CSR approach of SMEs, whereas stakeholder theory more closely addresses the CSR approach of large firms. A twofold consideration emerges. First, the CSR–SME relationship could be better explained if the notion of social capital is taken into account, but this should also be accompanied by a stakeholder view of the SME; second, social capital and stakeholder theory should be taken as alternative ways of explaining CSR in both large firms and SMEs. artigos social_capital capital_social socialcapital stakeholder orgtheory organization organizational_theory

• [Entrepreneurial Orientation and the Performance of Religious Congregations as Predicted by Rational Choice Theory. John A. Pearce II. 2009; Entrepreneurship Theory and Practice - Wiley InterScience] Empirical and anecdotal evidence suggests that businesses that act with an entrepreneurial orientation enjoy superior performance. Our research investigates whether nonprofit, religious congregations can benefit from similar initiatives. We based our hypotheses on the Rational Choice Theory of Religion, which was developed by social scientists to bring economic analysis to the understanding of the effects of competition among nonprofit organizations. Using a sample of 250 religious congregations in five different geographical markets, an entrepreneurial orientation is found to be positively associated with organizational performance. A hypothesized interaction effect between environmental munificence and entrepreneurial orientation is assessed. religiao religion economia-religiao entrepreneurship igreja-empresa
• [The Business Case for Corporate Social Responsibility: A Review of Concepts, Research and Practice. Archie B. Carroll. 2010; International Journal of Management Reviews - Wiley InterScience] Artigo de Archie B. Carroll. In this review, the primary subject is the 'business case' for corporate social responsibility (CSR). The business case refers to the underlying arguments or rationales supporting or documenting why the business community should accept and advance the CSR 'cause'. The business case is concerned with the primary question: What do the business community and organizations get out of CSR? That is, how do they benefit tangibly from engaging in CSR policies, activities and practices? The business case refers to the bottom-line financial and other reasons for businesses pursuing CSR strategies and policies. In developing this business case, the paper first provides some historical background and perspective. The goal is to describe and summarize what the business case means and to review some of the concepts, research and practice that have come to characterize this developing idea. artigos orgtheory organization organizational_theory estudos_organizacionais respsocial_microcredito

This paper reviews the literature on corporate social performance (CSP) measurement and sets that literature into a theoretical context. Following a review of CSP theory development and the literature on relationships between CSP and corporate financial performance, Wood's CSP model (Wood, D.J. (1991). Corporate social performance revisited. Academy of Management Review, 16, pp. 691–718) is used as an organizing device to present and discuss studies that use particular measures of CSP. Conclusions emphasize the need for CSP scholars to refocus on stakeholders and society, and to incorporate relevant literatures from other scholarly domains. artigos orgtheory organization organizational_theory estudos_organizacionais respsocial_microcredito
