From Structure to Its Fragmentation: The Internationalization of Organizations and of Inter-organizational Relations

In stakeholder theory, the environment is often represented as a core (the firm) surrounded by a constellation of stakeholders. It is true that the schematic nature of this representation has come in for a substantial amount of criticism. But the remarkable thing about such schemas is not that they identify stakeholders, albeit in an approximative manner, within society. Since the 1980s, research has no longer focused exclusively on the internal coordination of manufacturing-type organizations, but has also taken into account non-hierarchical (network) coordination between organizations whose missions are international and whose objectives are often very distinct in commercial, strategic and political terms. However, such organizations share a common concern: the capacity to coordinate other entities or other actors in terms of transnational activities. These changes in scale of analysis are the result of at least three factors: the internationalization of private organizations; the growing number of international organizations with a regional or global vocation; and a profound transformation within public organizations.
