Abstract

This study extends theory on the role of identity construction in institutionalization processes by exploring the role of everyday identity work by nonentrepreneurial actors in the reproduction and translation of new institutional logics. I analyze how management and institutional investors in the United Kingdom reworked their identity and practices in response to efforts by influential change agents to shape and control these based on the logic of shareholder value. This analysis identifies three ways in which actors, through everyday identity work, can paradoxically accommodate and resist the practice and identity implications of new institutional logics at the same time.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
