Globalization, new technology, and sociopolitical uncertainty are increasingly challenging traditional view of organizations, which has led organization studies to shift from “the iron cage to transparent liquidity” (Clegg & Baumeler, 2009: p. 1714). We suggest that fluidity will characterize much of future work.
Inspired by the work of Zygmunt Bauman (2000; 2005); Clegg & Baulemer (2009)’s “liquid modernity” and Kociatkiewicz & Kostera (2014) take on “liquid organizations”, we would like to call for studies on what it entails for actors to be living and working in fluid organizations.
