title = {Resource Dependence Theory – How Well Does It Explain Behavior of Organizations?},
year = {2008},
note = {This article evaluates to what extent Resource Dependence Theory (RDT)
is able to explain organizational processes and structures. The
evaluation criteria are the empirical corroboration of the theory, its
information content and generality, but also how realistic the
assumptions of the RDT are. The evaluation shows that the theory is
empirically well confirmed. On the whole, Resource Dependence Theory
significantly contributes to explaining behavior, structure,
stability, and change of organizations.},
