Abstract

This TR continues the author’s interest in status consistency and organizational stability. It describes a process that equilibrates ranks on different dimensions, and then expands the focus to show how equilibrating processes within an organization affect stratification across organizations. This paper was presented at ASA meetings in 1966 and, after revisions, in 1968. After further revisions it was published by the author (1972).

Revised:Published in Joseph Berger, Morris Zelditch, Jr, and Bo Anderson (eds.J, Sociological Theories in Progress,
Vol. II. Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1972, pp. 291-307.
