Abstract
My focus is on different epistemologies in sociological thinking, dealing particularly with the problem of socialisation, both primary socialisation and secondary socialisation or ‘local socialisation’ in organisations. Throughout, I refer to secondary socialisation in organisations as ‘organisational socialisation’. My argument is that the presuppositions of a normative epistemology lead to a conceptualisation of the process of socialisation that is unidirectional in nature (from managers to organisational members) and bypasses the possibility that socialisation is accomplished through the situated, joint, linguistic interpretive processes undertaken by organisational members in social interaction. Taking the ‘linguistic turn’ in an interpretive epistemology, and following Bittner (1965, 1973) and Manning (1971), I am arguing that organisations are ‘worded entities’ and that organisational socialisation is ‘linguistically constituted’ and a ‘two-way street’.
