摘要
资源依赖理论在解释组织间关系时关注组织间的双边权力,当其被置于组织网络结构中时,经典的权力机制是否还具有解释力?本文以在线教育组织为案例,运用网络分析方法探讨组织网络结构对组织间资源依赖关系的影响。研究发现,在一个由利益相关者共同参与的组织网络中,用户通过表达差异化需求,组织通过改变信息沟通结构,实现了组织间的目标协同、信息共享和信任增强,突破了经典资源依赖理论的权力机制,形成了资源利益基础上的合作机制。
The classical resource dependence theory(CRDT)focuses on bilateral power between organizations in inter-organizational relationships.Can this view of bilateral power be applied to online organization network?Based on an online education case,this paper argues that bilateral relationships are always contingent on one another.There is no pure bilateral relationship as was described by CRDT in 1960 s.Users are organized as a part of the network with demands for differentiated services.Organizations try to change the information flow in the network in order to serve more users.The power described by CRDT has disappeared.Instead,resource dependence encourages cooperation among organizations in the network by sharing information,improving mutual trust,and coordinating goals.
