Xingyu Li et al.

Summary: This study, based on 1.2 million students in 59 societies, reveals a systematic cross-cultural variation in the importance of passion in predicting achievement.

Organizational and comparative institutionalism in international HRM: Toward an integrative research agenda

Andreas P. J. Schotter et al.

Summary: Research on the relationship between international HRM and institutions has been primarily influenced by two leading streams of theory - organizational institutionalism and comparative institutionalism. However, there is little logical integration between these two dominant streams and scholars have paid little attention to the dynamics of contextualization, specifically institutional development and evolution. This limits the relevance of existing research. This article reviews the existing literature, identifies its intellectual origins, and develops an integrative research agenda emphasizing the multilevel nature of HRM and evolution under external institutional change.

Policy implementation styles and local governments: the case of climate change adaptation

Alexandra Lesnikowski et al.

Summary: Local governments play a significant role in the design and implementation of climate change adaptation policies, which are influenced by various factors such as internal capacity, local political economies, and problem perception. National government dependencies, presence of national adaptation mandates, decision-making traditions, and policy approaches can also impact local policy instrument choices.

The case for an inhabited institutionalism in organizational research: interaction, coupling, and change reconsidered

Tim Hallett et al.

Summary: This paper argues for an inhabited institutionalism by addressing the challenges of accounting for local activity, agency, and change within institutional theory. By shifting the focus to inhabited institutions, the research moves away from individuals towards social interactions and provides a new analytical framework, offering a novel approach for examining recursive relationships among institutions, interactions, and organizations, which can revitalize and reunite organizational sociology and institutional theory.
