Organizational theory and research has been enormously generative for political sociologists, if not always as fully centered as it might be, relative to broader notions of political power, economic resources, culture, and their interplay. This review both calls attention to the ways that organizational theory continues to inform political sociology and sets an agenda for how this interchange can be productively extended in various ways in scholarship on states, political parties, advocacy organizations, and business influences in politics. I highlight the genealogy of the new institutionalism and its variants (World Polity and institutional logics), population ecology (and the growing interest in both categories and audiences, alongside studies of the “ecology of ideology”), and research that follows in the broad tradition of resource dependence theory (and the link to more management‐oriented approaches such as “non‐market strategy” and stakeholder theories of organizational political activities). I also emphasize how novel theories of social movements and fields have offered innovative insights that incorporate organizational and political processes. I conclude by elaborating an agenda for how political sociologists can go further in maintaining and extending their highly productive and rewarding engagements with organizational theory.

政治社会学中的组织理论

相对于更广泛的政治权力，经济资源，文化及其相互影响的概念，组织理论和研究对于政治社会学家来说是巨大的创举，即使不是总是尽可能地处于中心位置。这篇综述既引起了人们对组织理论继续为政治社会学提供信息的方式的关注，也为如何以各种方式有效地扩展这种交流提供了议程，这些学术交流涉及到国家，政党，倡导组织以及政治上的商业影响。我着重介绍新制度主义及其变体（世界政治和制度逻辑）的族谱，人口生态学（以及对类别和受众的兴趣不断增长，以及对“意识形态生态学”的研究），以及遵循资源依赖理论（以及与更多面向管理的方法（例如“非市场战略”和组织政治活动的利益相关者理论）的联系）的广泛研究。我也强调社会运动和领域的新颖理论如何提供结合组织和政治过程的创新见解。最后，我总结了一个议程，说明政治社会学家如何才能进一步保持和扩展他们对组织理论的高产和奖励性参与。我也强调社会运动和领域的新颖理论如何提供结合组织和政治过程的创新见解。最后，我总结了一个议程，说明政治社会学家如何才能进一步保持和扩展他们对组织理论的高产和奖励性参与。我也强调社会运动和领域的新颖理论如何提供结合组织和政治过程的创新见解。最后，我总结了一个议程，说明政治社会学家如何才能进一步保持和扩展他们对组织理论的高产和奖励性参与。
