This book offers an assessment of Pondy’s contribution, through critical reflection on what happened to the relationship between conflict theory and ‘beyond open systems’.
Louis R. Pondy was a leading management and organizational studies scholar whose work on open systems helped launch and define the future of the field. This book offers an assessment of Pondy’s contribution, through critical reflection on what happened to the relationship between conflict theory and “beyond open systems.”

Exploring the ways in which Louis R. Pondy theorizes conflict and systems, and how he challenged the status quo paradigms, this book offers a historical analysis on Pondy’s work and the relation to contemporary management theory. The author develops a Triple Loop framework, building on Pondy’s theories as well as the work of Gregory Batesom, to demonstrate a beyond-open-systems approach and existing single- or double-loop systems.

Demonstrating the value and legacy of Louis R. Pondy, this book will have international appeal to researchers, academics and students across management disciplines and organizational studies, including systems thinking and conflict resolution.

David M. Boje is Professor Emeritus in Management at New Mexico State University, and Professor at Aalborg University Business School, Denmark. Rohny Saylors is Assistant Professor in entrepreneurship at Washington State University.
