March(1988)

Barbara Levitt and James G. March,"Organizational Learning",Annual Review of Sociology, Vol.14, pp.319-340, 1988.

組織学習，もしくは組織の学習(こちらのニュアンスの方が強いと思う)について網羅的に書かれている．

Within such a framework, organizations are seen as
learning by encoding inferences from history into routines that guide
behavior. The genetic term "routines" includes the forms, rules,
procesures, conventions, strategies, and technologies around which
organizations are constructed and through which they operate. It also
includes the structure of beliefs, frameworks, paradigms, codes,
cultures, and knowledge that buttress, elaborate, and contradict the
formal routines. Routines are independent of the individual actors who
execute them and are capable of surviving considerable turnover in
individual actors.(pp.320)

The first is diffusion involving a single source
broadcasting a disease to a population of potential, but not
necessarily equally vulnerable, victims.
(snip)
The second process is diffusion involving the spread of a disease
through contact between a member of the population who is infected and
one who is not, sometimes mediated by a host carrier.
(snip)
The third process is two-stage diffusion involving the spread of a
disease within a small group by contagion and then by broadcast from
them to the remainder of a population.

In the organizational literature, these three processes have been
labeled coecive, mimetic, and normative (DiMaggio & Powell 1983)
