Abstract(s)
Ultimamente muitas investigações têm sido levadas a cabo em diferentes áreas das Ciências
Sociais e Humanas, nas quais o fenómeno de inércia, suas causas e resultados têm sido estudados,
a saber: na Filosofia (Ética e Praxeologia), na Psicologia ou na Teoria Organizacional. Todavia,
parece que a literatura científica das Ciências Sociais, maioritariamente baseada em estudos
empíricos, nos quais a inércia é uma das variáveis independentes, carece de reflexão teórica. O
problema de inércia organizacional é analisado no presente artigo como um caso específico da inércia
do comportamento humano. Este artigo aborda apenas algumas questões relacionadas com a
inércia do comportamento humano: o problema da aplicação directa do princípio mecânico para a
área psicossocial, algumas concepções deste fenómeno nas Ciências Sociais com especial enfoque
na Teoria organizacional, bem como a avaliação deste fenómeno. Por estas razões, o texto concentra-
se nos aspectos conceptuais do fenómeno, levantando mais questões do que dando respostas.
Tem um carácter introdutório a futuras investigações.
In recent times several investigations have been carried out in different areas of Social Sciences and Humanities, where the phenomenon of inertia, its causes and results were studied, such as, Philosophy (Ethics, Praxiology), Psychology or Organizational Theory. The problem of organizational inertia is analysed in the present paper as a specific one in the human behaviour inertia. However, it seems that scientific literature in Social Sciences, mostly based on empirical studies, where inertia is one of many independent variables, lacks theoretical reflection on these phenomena. This paper concerns only some questions related to inertia of human behaviour as a problem of direct use of the mechanical principle to the psycho-sociological sphere, some conceptions of this phenomenon in Social Sciences with special scope on Organizational Theory, and the evaluation sign attributed to these phenomena. For these reasons, the focus is on the conceptualisation of the phenomenon which rises more questions than it gives answers. The character of this paper is introductory to further investigation.
