Special Journal Issue: Call for Papers
Organizational Economics and Organizational Capabilities: From Opposition and Complementarity to Real Integration is the focus for a special issue of Organization Science. The purpose and explicit goal of this special issue is to encourage and highlight work that effectively and systematically integrates the organizational economics and organizational capabilities-based literatures. The guest editors believe that significantly deeper integration of these two literatures will lead to important insights into organizational behavior, particularly the relationships between various organizational and inter-organizational forms and arrangements on the one hand, and capability building processes and outcomes on the other. Manuscript submissions are due in October 2009. Select papers will be invited for a special issue conference. For more details, see the Special Issue solicitation.

Questions to address include how IOs are organized and governed, the incentives of governments dealing with IOs as well as the incentives of the bureaucrats who staff them, and the effects of IOs on policy outcomes. We will also consider the interaction of IOs with transnational actors such as commercial lobbies and NGOs. Finally, we have a particular interest in the interaction of the international political economy with the domestic political economy of IOs members. The submission deadline is September 30, 2009.
