Abstract: Whereas time has been integral to organizational research since late 1950s, its role in organizations has changed considerably up to the present. The last 20 years have witnessed an acceleration in temporal foci and a major development has been the introduction and operationalization of the philosophy of time in organizational research. The changing role of time in organizational research over the past decades is discussed as a basis for developing the theoretical framework, which is the main contribution of the book (time-as-experience, time-as-resource, time-as-events, and time-as-practice). The chapter discusses how works on time and organization may be synthesized into the four dimensions of the framework. The review also reveals how dichotomies that dominate in time research may be questioned or overcome.
