Main themes The course deals with the following key issues: - the concept of organisation and its development in organisational sociology (organisational structures, contingency, environmental influence, systems of authority and power etc) - Communication theories and their links to organisations (transmissive and systemic approaches, images and representations etc); - Notions of " operational ", " integrative " and " self-organising " communication, notions of internal and external communication; - The organisation as a system of culturally regulated behaviour (notions of business culture and " corporate culture "); - Policies and strategies of organisational communication ("business communication", public relations, advertising, business press etc) as modes of intervention and legitimacy.
Aims By the end of the course, students should be able to: 1. identify, analyse and understand a range of communication phenomena, mechanisms and processes, and their links to concepts of organisation and organised action; 2. adopt a critical, theoretical approach towards the different forms of and strategies involved in " organisational communication " from the point of view of a theory of organisational communication.
