Exit, Voice, and Loyalty

Responses to Decline in Firms, Organizations, and States

Albert O. Hirschman

Exit, Voice, and Loyalty is a thought-provoking book that explores the different ways people react to dissatisfaction with organizations. The author, Albert O. Hirschman, makes a distinction between "exit," which involves leaving an organization or switching to a competing product, and "voice," which involves agitating for change from within. Hirschman questions the efficiency of relying solely on exit and argues that loyalty can play a role in retarding exit and allowing voice to make an impact. The concepts explored in this book shed light on a wide range of economic, social, and political phenomena.

Read 3 of Hirschman's books & they were all excellent: The Passions and Interests Exit, Voice and Loyalty Development Projects Observed Many people may not fully appreciate the originality of it b/c many of Hirschman's ideas have become so fully absorbed.      source
