Abstract:
Ever since Nelson and Winter published their Evolutionary Theory of Economic Change in 1982 there has been lively debate in the fields of organizational theory and evolutionary economics about the characteristics and effects of organizational routines. The authors discuss a practice-based perspective on routines in connection with diffusion processes. An approach is developed by placing Feldman and Pentland's concept of routines, which draws on structuration and actor network theories, in relation to a knowing in practice perspective. Within a relational approach, the authors propose taking a practice-based perspective to the diffusion of organizational routines, with (i) knowing, (ii) collaborations, and (iii) policy relevance being the critical categories.
