    Call for Papers: Organization Studies special issue on "Platform Organizations and Societal Change"

    Scope:

    The goal of this special issue is to provide a forum for organizational scholarship on market and nonmarket dynamics of digital platforms. Specifically, we invite papers examining

    (1) processes, practices, and rhetoric through which digital platforms promote new knowledge paradigms and social structures

    (2) how, when, and with what effects digital platforms alter established organizations (like incumbents, public administrations, social movements, etc.)

    (3) the responses to digital platforms, and the dynamics these responses set in motion.

    We welcome diverse theoretical perspectives and are open to various methods.

    Hi Georg, 
    Is the development in the healthcare sector represent an organizational change through the diffusion of cyber technology (internet adoption) across countries? In other words, I have a study in which healthcare sector development and psychological wellness of nations are enabled by information technology (digital/cyber). We as institutional scholars think of institutions at the national level, sectoral level and organizational level. Therefore, industries, sectors, and nations are institutions to us. If it is acceptable to you and the others, I will be happy to direct it to EGOS and the SI. I am seeking this input to avoid wasting your time later. 

    It is a panel study of 26 years and 149 countries. 
    With gratitude!
    Tariq
