Bruno Latour, in a presentation entitled "What's organizing? A meditation on the bust of Emilio Bootme in praise of Jim Taylor", gave a vibrant hommage to James R. Taylor, founder of the Université de Montréal Departement of communication and an important figure in organizational communication. Latour is professor at Sciences Po Paris and co-founded Actor-Network-Theory, which had an important impact on all aspects of sociology.
I really recognize his example with the "tumbling with the blueprint and essence of the institution" - an essence so weak that we don't know what to do. And then when having decided what to do ascriping the decisicion to the very same essence. This is a basic way to reassample the past and the future.
