Social Structure of the Future: Early Moments, Interstitial Spaces and Possible Histories
Proceedings - Academy of Management(2022)
Abstract
This symposium aims to connect emerging research on imagined futures and possibilities with historical and institutional approaches to field and industry emergence. To start a conversation about the social structures of the possible, we mobilize three distinct sets of cognate concepts and theory-method packages that have so far been used in relative isolation in management: First, the concepts of interstitial spaces, early moments, and experimental spaces; second the historically-informed notion of “paths not taken” and counterfactual analysis; and third, recent methodological developments such as topic modeling, socio- cultural network analysis, and qualitative comparative analysis.
