“…And finally, several studies have highlighted the field level dynamics by which environmental standards transfer across international boundaries. Anwar (1999) and Sorstrom (1999) Each of these studies highlights the interconnections among field level constituencies. To create a structured model of the categories of occupational communities influencing corporate environmental practice, one must consider each constituency that has a direct impact on business practice, norms and beliefs.…”

This paper examines the diffusion of corporate environmental practice in the context of field level dynamics. It builds a conceptual model that makes links between (1) the complex constituency of the institutional field driving environmental concerns, (2) the multiple cultural frames that emerge from that constituency, and (3) the corresponding structural and cultural routines that become enacted within firms. It offers contributions for research in the domains of both environmental practice and institutional theory. For environmental practice, this paper attends to the genesis and diffusion of environmental practice that go beyond individual organization level. For institutional theory, this paper moves beyond the traditional focus on isomorphism and elaborates the processes of field-level dynamics. It shows how field level heterogeneity can occur by depicting inertia, traditionally a phenomenon attributed to the field, as the result of individual organization level dynamics that resist change. The paper concludes with ideas for future research.

“…And finally, several studies have highlighted the field-level dynamics by which environmental standards transfer across international boundaries. Anwar (1999) and Sorstrom (1999) studied the linkages between multi-national firms, international government agencies, and environmental practices within China. Liverman, Varady, Chavez, and Sanchez (1999) studied environmental Hoffman / LINKING ORGANIZATIONAL AND FIELD ANALYSES 139 management along the U.S.-Mexico border and found that binational agreements were particularly important, but also important were the actions of environmental NGOs in gaining their acceptance.…”

This article examines the diffusion of corporate environmental practice in the context of field-level dynamics. It builds a conceptual model that makes links among (a) the complex constituency of the institutional field driving environmental concerns, (b) the multiple cultural frames that emerge from that constituency, and (c) the corresponding structural and cultural routines that become enacted within firms. It offers contributions for research in the domains of both environmental practice and institutional theory. For environmental practice, this article attends to the genesis and diffusion of environmental practice by going beyond the individual organization level. For institutional theory, the implications of this model allow for more sophisticated notions of isomorphism and resistance to change. Inertia, traditionally a phenomenon attributed to the field, can be the result of organization-level dynamics that resist change. The article concludes with ideas for future research.
