文摘This article attempts to analyze, through a re-reading of the present sociological literature on the organization (that explores the organizations themselves in terms of "tacit" rather than "explicit", "socio-cultural systems" rather than "socio-technical systems"), the main intangible components that may affect the organizational live and all the organizing in general for the good or the evil, with respect to the "success" rather than the "failure" of the "in and out" organizational acting. There are then some sorts of "basic assumptions", deemed indispensable, also because they are still there and live in organizations but they do not always have a careful importance. Therefore the objective of the article is to describe them highlighting their salience and attempt to define parameters for further in-depth studies.
