Summary
Each of the papers in this volume revisits Selznick's early work, rearticulates some part of his larger perspective, or says somehting about it's originality and historical significance. They also bring Selznick's perspective to bear on more contemporary issues, apply it to new problems, and explain why it still "matters" in the here and now. Though his work is an important part of our shared past as organizational scholars, it's also highly relevant to our collective present and future and provides some indication of what that future could look like.
