Resumo
Este artigo tem por objetivo discutir o conceito de rotinas e apresentar os principais avanços na área. O debate a esse respeito – elemento central na teoria neoschumpeteriana – tem crescido, e vários autores, inclusive aqueles ligados a áreas correlatas, como estratégia de empresas, inovação e mudança organizacional, têm buscado maior entendimento sobre o conceito. Neste sentido, uma visita à literatura produzida nos últimos anos mostra-se como um importante ponto de partida. A primeira seção deste artigo apresenta o debate recente sobre o conceito de rotinas, classificando a literatura em três grandes interpretações. A seguir, discute-se sua origem, isto é, o seu fundamento micro e a perspectiva das rotinas no nível das empresas. Por fim, apresentam-se as principais discussões e contribuições recentes em termos teóricos e empíricos no que se refere aos seus papéis e características.Referências
