Abstract: This text begins with a brief summary of problems resulting from the traditional framing of the term “organizations”. It ignores organizing without organizations, organizing between organizations, and the fact that organizations can be obstacles to organizing. The text continues with the analysis of the newly fashionable term “meshwork” as a possible new way of framing organizing.
