Works

In Organizational Structures

Known for

The organizational analysis of religious denominations

Ideas

Denominations as dual structures. Analyzed a religious denomination as two parallel structures over its congregations, a religious authority structure and an agency structure. Caveat: Only the abstract was read.

In this section, “read” means read by the Organizational Structures series: where a line says a work, or part of one, was not read, the series did not read it.
