Theorizing path dependence: a review of positive feedback mechanisms in technology markets, regional clusters, and organizations (2012, neutral): “The concept of path dependence has become increasingly popular in the social sciences and in economics (e.g. Lamberg and Tikkanen, 2006; Schneiberg, 2007; Antonelli, 2008; Gruber, 2010) and it is being used in fields as diverse as historical or comparative institutionalism (e.”
The missing link between the theory and empirics of path dependence: Conceptual clarification, testability issue, and methodological implications (2010, background): “…view has the merit of consistency since it preserves the explanatory power of structures over time: for instance, we do not need to posit, for obscure reasons, that institutions suddenly cease to produce constraining institutional effects on the moment the system escapes lock-in (Schneiberg, 2007).”
MNC Strategic Responses to Ethical Pressure: An Institutional Logic Perspective (2011, background): “Unlike the seemingly smooth diffusion of a unitary practice throughout a field or focal population (Strang and Soule, 1998), logic transplantation involves competing logics and possible resistance because in this case the institutional environments are fragmented and contested (Schneiberg, 2007; Sch”

A Tale of Two Cities: Competing Logics and Practice Variation In the Professionalizing of Mutual Funds (2007, neutral): “A more complete shift away from the two-stage model of diffusion and associated notions such as “institutionalization” and “isomorphism” requires a conceptualization of institutional environments as more fragmented and contested (Schneiberg, 2007; Schneiberg & Soule, 2005) and influenced by multiple”
From Typology to Taxonomy: A Configurational Analysis of National Business Systems and their Explanatory Power (2014, background): “…& Whitley, 2012; Herrmann, 2008; Lange, 2009; Schneider, Schulze-Bentrop, & Paunescu, 2010), and national institutional frameworks often encompass institutional niches that favor certain activities (Crouch, 2005; Lane & Wood, 2009, 2012; Lange, 2009; Parker & Tamaschke, 2005; Schneiberg, 2007).”

Distinguishing Category Creation From Category Emergence (2017, positive): “…and disaggregating components of the system and because there are more cues, features, elements, and institutional remnants (Dacin & Dacin, 2008; Schneiberg, 2007) to play with, intermingle, and remix in different ways to create the category and build the corresponding narrative around it.”
