Descriere

This book sheds light on the increasing pressure on organizations for compliance to standards in the 'audit society'. It explores the conditions and contradictions under which deviance in organizations occurs, and applies structuration theory to cover aspects of both structure and agency to explain organisational deviance from standards.
