Resumen
MERCIER, Delphine. Organizational blindness: a methodological approximation of the functioning of organizations. CONfines relacion. internaci. ciencia política [online]. 2006, vol.2, n.3, pp.75-86. ISSN 1870-3569.
This article analyzes organizational phenomena using the perspective of sociological theory, and in particular interactionist sociology. I demonstrate that traditional analysis in terms of power, professional culture, or autonomy regulation does not reveal the complexity of the dynamic of the interactions of an organizational structure. I construct an interpretative and methodological framework towards understanding the causes of organizational blindness and some possible resolutions. This argument is illustrated through the analysis of a case study that departs from the definition created by the organization's actors.
