TOPIC
The theme of automatic behaviour has been attracting attention of researchers working in philosophical action theory, cognitive and developmental psychology, and organization science for over three decades. It has been widely recognized that a significant portion of human everyday automatic practices are constituted by habitual and routine behaviour. Still, the research on habits and routines in psychology and organization science vary significantly. While in psychology habits are identified and interpreted as one of the standard types of automatic behaviour, in organization science habits and organizational routines are usually distinguished. What is more, organization researchers are divided as for the character of routines and habits: some of them believe that routines – as much as habits – constitute ‘mindless automaticity’ which explains inertia and suboptimal behaviour, others claim that routines are ‘effortful accomplishments’ and allow flexibility and change. Yet others try to show that some organizational habits are mindful. All these differences are significant for the philosophy of action. The goal of the volume is to create a platform for discussing the interrelations between philosophical, psychological, and organizational approaches to habits and routines. Contributions to the volume might address (but are not limited to):

• The concept of automaticity of behaviour as understood in the philosophy of action, psychology, and organization science.
• Taxonomy of automatic actions.
• The problem of mindlessness and mindfulness of automatic behaviour.
• Similarities and differences between psychological and organizational accounts of habits and routines.
• Micro-foundational role of psychological habits for organizational routines.
• Models of explanation for automatic actions.
• Interpretations of classic historical accounts of habits, routines and automatic behaviour in general.
