Beyond Constraining and Enabling: Toward New Microfoundations for Institutional Theory (2017, unknown): “Early attempts to reintroduce strategic action, following DiMaggio (1988), showed that actors are able to reflect on the institutional constraints they are subject to, and they are able to use — and possibly change — them to their advantage (see Hardy & Maguire, 2008).”

Re-theorizing the configuration of organizational fields: the IIRC and the pursuit of ‘Enlightened’ corporate reporting (2017, background): “Thus, the dynamics described by Suddaby and Viale (2011) should not be presumed automatically to give rise to ‘heroic’ institutional entrepreneurs instigating significant institutional change (Hardy and Maguire 2008).”
The Rise of Socially Responsible Investment Funds: The Paradoxical Role of the Financial Logic (2019, background): “When the dominant logic plays the role of provider of means, however, opportunities for institutional work may emerge (Lawrence and Suddaby, 2006; Hardy and Maguire, 2008), and multiple logics are likely to be complementary.”
Institutional entrepreneurship and change in fields (2017, background): “However, these actors are unlikely to have the power and resources necessary to realize change, especially if it means convincing or coercing other members in the field – including dominant players – to alter their practices (Maguire, 2007).”
The sharing economy in social media: Analyzing tensions between market and non-market logics (2017, methodology): “When analyzing a specific organizational field at a certain point in time, three dimensions are usually studied: (1) the state of the field in which actors operate; (2) how meanings among actors are diffused; and (3) relations between actors (Hardy and Maguire, 2008).”
Bankers at the gate: Microfinance and the high cost of borrowed logics (2012, background): “These discussions stand somewhat apart from research in areas such as institutional work (Lawrence & Suddaby, 2006) and entrepreneurship (Hardy & Maguire, 2008) where actors seek to advance their interests by purposively changing their institutional environment.”
