| Summary: | A fruitful beginning point for sociological analyses of industry is the concept of status. This concept can be used by itself or in conjunction with other theoretical ideas in the analysis of such diverse areas as work-group behavior, bureaucracy, supervision, high-level industrial management and executives, union statuses, the theory of trade unionism and of collective bargaining, and minority groups in industry. The field of industrial sociology is currently being studied by a host of scholars with widely disparate interests and frames of references but the direction of this research does not seem well focused in terms of developing the science of sociology. It now seems timely for sociologists interested in industry to engage in intellectual stocktaking and reassessment if there is a long-range interest in forestalling the drift of the field toward applied business administration and a narrow focus upon managerial techniques. |
