Book of Abstracts for the Papers Presented at the 1st International Congress on Management of Organizations

The organizational economics paradigm is useful for a research tool in order to construct a concrete theory of entrepreneur as a human agent of change. Under this theoretical framework, chief functions of entrepreneurial activity must be defined. Hébert and Link (1988) decomposes functions of entrepreneur with reference to different definitions in the history of economic theory. They gather together twelve functions under two main categories. First, they divide entrepreneurial functions as static and dynamic. Thereby, they identify each function with a definition and historical classification as an overview of distinct intellectual attempts by economists in the relevant literature. We conduct structural and contextual analysis to entegrate functionalist approach of organizational economics to the theory of entrepreneur. Key words: Economics of Organization, Theory of Entrepreneur, Functionalist Approach, The Organizational Economics Paradigm, Structural and Contextual Analysis

Anthropogenic Tropical Forests

The studies in this volume provide an ethnography of a plantation frontier in central Sarawak, Malaysian Borneo. Drawing on the expertise of both natural scientists and social scientists, the key focus is the process of commodification of nature that has turned the local landscape into anthropogenic tropical forests. Analysing the transformation of the space of mixed landscapes and multiethnic communities—driven by trade in forest products, logging and the cultivation of oil palm—the contributors explore the changing nature of the environment, multispecies interactions, and the metabolism between capitalism and nature. The project involved the collaboration of researchers specialising in...
