This dissertation provides a conceptual framework for the analysis of formalization (of rules, procedures, organizational relationships, etc.) in organizations and other social systems, a reconceptualization of Weber's concepts of formal rationalization and formal rationality, and a rich ethnographic look at their manifestations and effects in the bureaucracies of Muncie, Indiana, a.k.a. "Middletown."

This dissertation provides a conceptual framework for the analysis of formalization (of rules, procedures, organizational relationships, etc.) in organizations and other social systems, a reconceptualization of Weber's concepts of formal rationalization and formal rationality, and a rich ethnographic look at their manifestations and effects in the bureaucracies of Muncie, Indiana, a.k.a. "Middletown."

Max Weber's central concern was with what he called "rationalization," along with the related concept "rationality." This dissertation takes an inductive approach to Weber's concepts, particularly the subtypes "formal rationalization" and "formal rationality." The former is conceptualized in terms of the formalization of social models representing organizational relationships and responsibilities, rules and procedures, time and space, etc. The latter is conceptualized as a type of reasoning that draws upon on the models, leads to means-end rational action, and thereby enacts them. Deviation from the models is referred to as "loose coupling," and may be caused by many factors, including the application of "substantive rationality" (value-based reasoning).

While these ideas may be applied to social systems of various types and sizes, they are here applied to bureaucratic organizations found in Muncie, Indiana. As a research associate on the Middletown IV Federal Presence Study the author there conducted dozens of semi-structured interviews during the summer of 2002 with managers of federal agencies and other organizations that receive federal funds. A brief history of federalism and intergovernmental relations in the United States and Muncie is provided. In the body of the dissertation interview transcripts are used to illustrate and analyze the types of formalization described above, along with processes of implementation and maintenance, the benefits and problems of formalization, and deviations from the models. Contrasting models of behavior are also described. A concluding chapter discusses the tradeoffs associated with formal rationalization and formal rationality, the dialectics of formal vs. substantive rationality, and other themes. Finally, the potential generalizability of the concepts developed in the dissertation is illustrated with examples from other organizational spheres.
