Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book challenges the popular conception that CEOs are able to entrench their power, arguing instead that power is impermanent and subject to a 'circulation of power', with executives constantly grappling with obsolescence and contestation. Drawing on theories of circulating elites… developed by Mosca, Pareto, and Michels, the author posits two main mechanisms that lead to the circulation of CEOs: technical and political obsolescence, and the contestation of power. The author presents a model of power dynamics that highlights the political struggles and incessant contestations that are always present within organizations, arguing that the power of the CEO and their coalition is always subject to contestation, with periods of stability being only temporary interruptions of this underlying struggle. This model is contrasted with a more traditional view of institutionalization of power, where power is seen as becoming increasingly entrenched over time. The author tests these competing hypotheses using an event history analysis of CEO transitions in US industrial corporations from 1960-1990, finding greater support for the model of circulation of power. The book offers a fresh perspective on the role of power and politics in shaping organizational behavior, and challenges the assumption that CEOs are able to develop and maintain stable and cohesive political coalitions that support their power base. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
