Organization Studies (OS)
Journal Descriptions
Organization Studies is a prestigious, monthly peer-reviewed academic journal dedicated to advancing the theory and practice of organizing in contemporary society. Since its inception in 1980, the journal has published high-quality research that deepens understanding of how organizations — and the processes of organizing — shape and are shaped by social, cultural, economic, and political contexts. It serves as a vibrant international forum for scholars who investigate the complexities of organizational life, ranging from individual and group behavior to institutional and system-level dynamics. The journal’s multidisciplinary scope welcomes work from management, sociology, anthropology, psychology, and other social sciences, fostering intellectual engagement across epistemological traditions and methodological approaches. Topics frequently explored include institutional theory, organizational change, identity and power, strategy and governance, innovation, and globalization. What distinguishes Organization Studies is its commitment to rigorous conceptual thinking coupled with empirical depth, encouraging contributions that challenge orthodoxies and contribute to both foundational theory and real-world relevance. Through empirical articles, conceptual essays, and methodological innovations, the journal stimulates critical dialogue that influences scholarly discourse and organizational practice. Its association with the European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) amplifies its role in shaping the global field of organization studies, making it an essential outlet for academics, doctoral students, and practitioners engaged in understanding and transforming organizational phenomena.
