Given the perspective that epistemology and logic are the two sub-branches of methodology, which, in turn, is a grand division of philosophy, what implications surface from the epistemology developed in this book on research methodology within the realms of organizational studies and management? The answer is embodied in the statement: a new epistemology implies new research methodology on the highest scale. Because the ways of interpreting knowledge are interrelated with the ways of attaining knowledge, an anti-representationistic, organizational epistemology, like the one in this book, requires rethinking of the basic ‘research logic’ within the realm of management and organizational studies.
