| Summary: | The analysis of organizational behavior has evolved to a point where it is possible to distinguish between and evaluate differing theoretical perspectives.

The use of the structural approach to organizational analysis is criticized and various arguments are presented for the utility of the systemic model. A perspective for the analysis of the parish as a social system is suggested which would utilize a set of three related models for parish behavior so as to distinguish the differential influences which control parish behavior. |
