Beskrivelse
This symposium explores the sociocultural dynamics of blockchain-based organizations as emerging forms of organizing. It examines the multifaceted challenges these organizations face in achieving and sustaining legitimacy and fostering growth within the evolving blockchain field. By shifting focus from purely technical aspects of decentralization to the socio-cultural mechanisms embedded in blockchain governance, the symposium highlights the interplay of symbolic and material realms, configurational logics, and societal legitimacy. Drawing on diverse organizational theories and qualitative methodologies, including netnography, rhetorical analysis, QCA, and topic modeling, this symposium seeks to advance a deeper understanding of blockchain governance, emphasizing its socio-cultural embeddedness, accountability, and sustainability. Participants will engage with new theoretical and methodological approaches to unpack the complexities of blockchain platforms beyond decentralized algorithms, offering insights into their growth, coordination, and integration within broader institutional contexts.This symposium has following contributions: Beyond the Code: A Configurational Analysis of Blockchain Governance Resilience to Challenges / Author: Yunjung Pak (University of Alberta) ; Accountability in Blockchain-Enabled Organizations: Insights from Decentralized Autonomous Organization / Author: Nina-Birte Schirrmacher (The University of Sydney), Author: Michel Avital (Copenhagen Business School), Author: Johannes Rude Jensen; Author: Omri Ross ; The Sociocognitive Formation of Category Stigma: The Case of Blockchain Voting in U.S. Elections / Author: Gianlorenzo Meggio; (Aarhus University), Author: Agnes Radziwon ; Constructing a Technology Logic: Multimodal Prefiguration and Hype in Blockchain for good / Author: Paula Ungureanu, Author: Carlotta Cochis (University of Modena and Reggio Emilia).
