LAST QUESTION ANSWER: Federal Trade Commission (FTC)
Answer: The answer is C.
Explanation: The Resource dependence theory is based on the principle that organizations, must engage in transactions with other organizations in their environment in order to acquire the resources needed for their daily operations.
Although such transactions may be advantageous, they may also create dependencies that are not, and so organization A may want to rely less on organization B, in their quest to influence the environment to make resources available.
This theory actually originated in the 1970s with the publication of The External Control of Organizations: A Resource Dependence Perspective by Jeffrey Pfeffer and Gerald R. Salancik.
The theory is based on the idea that resources are vital for organisational success and that access and control over resources forms the basis of power.
