Finding our way in the jungle: insights from organization theory
Résumé
This contribution is about the variety of modalities of coordination of economic activities,
with application to the agrifood sector. Building on recent developments in organization
theory and institutional analysis, it explores two dimensions along which coordination
operates: it proposes an extended transactional model to explain the variety of coordination
devices, with a special emphasis on contracts and their role in hybrid arrangements; and it
characterizes the different layers composing the institutional setting in which these
arrangements are embedded, with an emphasis on the long ignored or neglected role of the
intermediate, ‘meso-institutional’ layer. Insights are also provided on the technological
background to coordination and on some policy issues.
