Why was the popular sovereignty a solution and then a failure?

History

sukhopar [10]3 years ago

Popular sovereignty was an idea pushed on Douglas by Southern senators in order to pass his Kansas-Nebraska Act but Douglas made it a centerpiece of his policy because he saw it as the means to unite the Democrats, North and South, behind him.  Popular sovereignty had the opposite effect: it polarized political opinion even more.  Popular sovereignty in practice touched off something very close to a civil war in Kansas as pro-slavery and anti-slavery factions organized their own state constitutional conventions and led to wave of bushwhacking and political murders.

Describe the theoretical process of institutional isomorphism according to DiMaggio and Powell. How does this process potentiall
Vinil7 [7]
The organizational structure is dominated by the institutional norms imposed by the state and the professionals. The attempt to achieve rationality in the midst of the restriction of these new governmental structures and professionals, lead to the formation of a homogeneous structure, or institutional isomorphism. Isomorphism forces a group of workers to compete with other equal groups, and in very similar codes. Since companies and organizations always compete, this only generates a struggle between equals, and foments conformism since all groups must be equal and are not free to innovate or to leave that struggle, to look for new markets or ways to be efficient.
For example, if a car company creates a type of car, and other similar companies create cars too, then they will only change the shape, colors, designs or styles of cars; but no one will create a motorcycle or a van, and the market will be filled with cars that do not satisfy all people, because companies will be afraid to innovate or create something different, or to have to adapt to the rules of the State.
