Uppsala University 11<strong>KoF11</strong>communication” among healthcare organizations. This development raises fundamentalquestions concerning professional and organizational identities and legitimacy.Globalization also involves global systems of governance, including accounting. An earlier,and dominant, focus on how to adapt accounting to the unique conditions of the organizationas well as national laws and regulations are now challenged. Today global harmonization andthe possibility to make global comparisons of performance are prioritized. Furthermore, thereis a strongly expanding amount of other measures and methods of comparing organizationsintroduced by various interest organizations. Such organizations are themselves a crucial topicfor research as well as their effects on other organizations. The same is true for the role ofsocial entrepreneurs striving for effects on a global level. The role of traditional and newmedia is likely to become even stronger than today, implying new conditions for corporationsas well as other organizations. The development of media may produce new forms oforganizational reactions. It may lead to a continued trend towards even more “edited”organizations, continuously engaging in the collection, production and editing of textualpresentations on their behaviour. Alternatively, this trend may meet reactions that forceorganization to other types of response.There is an excellent basis for a large, long-term, overall departmental research programoriented to the study of global transformation and organization. For implementing such aprogram and for realizing the Department’s general commitment to a long-term perspective,substantial, concentrated and lasting financial resources are necessary. The Department isdependent on support and resources not only from external parties but also from theUniversity, for example in the form of reduced teaching and administration workloads forprofessors and lecturers.2011-02-28 Dept of Business Studies v 1.0
