拼合视角下的晚清官督商办公司之形成

Bricolage: Emergence of the GuanduShangban Company in Late Qing

以拼合为视角,运用历史研究法,阐释官督商办公司的形成过程,为涉及多元文化的新组织形式形成提供一种新的理论解释。新组织形式形成的拼合过程,包含要素选择与要素组合两个内在过程,要素组合又涉及要素之间的相容与要素整体的合法化,而制度逻辑在其中起着基础性作用。洋务派和守旧派在其所秉持的不同治国逻辑影响下选择或接纳招商专卖和现代公司两类组织要素,这两类要素又经由中国式"公"观念这一更高层次的社会逻辑所提供的框架,得以相容并组合成新的官督商办公司形式。

This study applies historical research and bricolage theory to expound the process of the GuanduShangban company emergence.The bricolage of a new organizational form consists of two inner sub-process,element selection and element combination.Moreover,the combination needs elements’combability and legitimation of the new hybrid.And institutional logics play fundamental roles during such a bricolage process.The Westernization Group and the Conservative Group choose or accept organizational elements of the certificated merchant monopoly and the modern company with guidelines provided by their holding government-ruling logics.Then these two kinds of elements,via the frames derived from a higher-level social logic of Chinese"Gong",become compatible with each other and combine into a new organizational form,namely GuanduShangban company.
