Our purpose is to develop a comprehensive categorization of organizational sustainability frames. This is necessary because a unified approach that considers the organizational sustainability frames of different organizations (FPOs, NPOs and hybrids) is absent in the extant research. Towards this end, we undertake an integrative review of 158 articles and identify seven frames based on three objective functions: maximization of economic capital, maintaining natural capital and creating social impact. Of the seven, three are dogmatic, each accepting only one objective function as legitimate: economic, natural and social capital; three are instrumental, with one objective function as the ultimate goal and the others as necessary means; and the last one is paradoxical, where tensions between objective functions are accommodated simultaneously rather than eliminated. We contribute to the literature by introducing the ‘dogmatic frame’ category to the ongoing conversation on organizational sustainability frames. We also contribute by demonstrating that instrumental frames exist not only at for-profit organizations but also at non-profits and hybrid organizations. Consequently, we link the conversation in these areas with that of organizational sustainability frames. Finally, we problematize the growing attention on the paradoxical frame by discussing its suitability in different contexts and situations.

教条、工具和矛盾的框架：研究组织可持续性的实用研究框架

我们的目的是对组织可持续性框架进行全面分类。这是必要的，因为现有研究中没有考虑不同组织（FPO、NPO 和混合组织）的组织可持续性框架的统一方法。为此，我们对 158 篇文章进行了综合审查，并根据三个目标功能确定了七个框架：经济资本最大化、自然资本保持和创造社会影响。在这七个中，三个是教条的，每个都只接受一个目标功能是合法的：经济、自然和社会资本；三是工具性的，以一个目标功能为最终目标，其他为必要手段；最后一个是自相矛盾的，目标函数之间的张力被同时调节而不是消除。我们通过将“教条框架”类别引入正在进行的关于组织可持续性框架的对话来为文献做出贡献。我们还通过证明工具框架不仅存在于营利性组织中而且还存在于非营利组织和混合组织中做出贡献。因此，我们将这些领域的对话与组织可持续性框架的对话联系起来。最后，我们通过讨论它在不同背景和情况下的适用性来解决对悖论框架的日益关注。我们还通过证明工具框架不仅存在于营利性组织中而且还存在于非营利组织和混合组织中做出贡献。因此，我们将这些领域的对话与组织可持续性框架的对话联系起来。最后，我们通过讨论它在不同背景和情况下的适用性来解决对悖论框架的日益关注。我们还通过证明工具框架不仅存在于营利性组织中而且还存在于非营利组织和混合组织中做出贡献。因此，我们将这些领域的对话与组织可持续性框架的对话联系起来。最后，我们通过讨论它在不同背景和情况下的适用性来解决对悖论框架的日益关注。
