Abstract

ABSTRACT The article aims to contribute to the under-developed research on pro-tribal behavior in organizations, by building on existing studies that focus either on economic or non-economic motivations and drivers of pro-tribal behavior at either individual, organizational, or societal levels of analysis. Drawing on Bourdieu’s social practice theory, we show how a multiplicity of drivers and motivations for pro-tribal behavior in the organization could emerge, interrelate and evolve by offering a new perspective that account for the interplay between economic and non-economic motivations; agency and structurally constrained aspects of human action; and the multiple levels of influences on pro-tribal behavior that extant studies have yet to fully explicate.

走向布迪厄式的部落与组织观

摘要本文旨在通过在现有研究的基础上，从个人、组织或社会层面分析经济或非经济动机以及亲部落行为的驱动因素，为组织中亲部落行为研究的不足做出贡献。根据布迪厄的社会实践理论，我们展示了组织中亲部落行为的多种驱动因素和动机是如何产生、相互关联和演变的，方法是提供一个新的视角来解释经济动机和非经济动机之间的相互作用；人类行动的机构和结构约束方面；以及现存研究尚未完全阐明的对亲部落行为的多个层面的影响。
