BIBLIOGRAPHY 299
In The Modern Firm: Towards A New Paradigm the
author introduces central components crucial for
a novel understanding of the theory and practice
of the firm. He argues that established approaches
are rooted in the malfunctioning amalgam of
methodological individualism in combination
with its core organizational template, the princi¬
pal-agent hierarchy (why is the firm a dictatorship
and not a market?). The hierarchy, in turn, presup¬
poses that the human condition is sufficiently
captured by exclusively natural selfishness as well
as the extrinsicness of both creativity and the
motivation to be productive. In contrast, the
author suggests a naturalistic, biomimicry-inspired
imagination of the firm that utilizes process philo¬
sophy as well as the self-organization format of
natural multi-agent systems. The author further
reasons that the conditio
humana
is characterized
by a spectrum of genetically manifested traits
including self-interest as well as, importantly,
altruistic helping, cooperation, collaboration,
together with a sense of fairness. This is comple¬
ted by evidence that strongly suggests that human
agents are intrinsically creative as well as motivat¬
ed. In combination, these and other features such
as treating the firm as an open system, have the
potential to contribute to a paradigmatic shift in
both the theory and practice of the firm. |
