the word count. The essay should be prepared as a Word document.
2. To avoid the dangers of plagiarism, you must use quotation marks where appropriate,

avoid using answers produced by other students or using shared answers. There is detailed
guidance on plagiarism available on the Canvas home page for the Management Programmes

Question Paper
USING EXAMPLES, answer ONE question ONLY.
1. What is organisation? Explain with examples the differences between hierarchy
and heterarchy as patterns of organisation.
2. At the turn of the twentieth century the sociologist Max Weber identified
“bureaucracy” as a distinct type of organisation. With examples, critically evaluate
Weber’s theory of bureaucracy.
3 .It is sometimes suggested that “Fordism” provided an important pattern of
organisation that was copied by businesses across different sectors during the
twentieth century. With examples, explain what Fordism is, and consider what
influence if any it still has upon business organisation.
4. Compare and contrast “systems theory” and “social conflict theory” as two
approaches to the understanding organisation. Using examples, explain which of
