Abstract
During the process of socialization, an individual acquires his role identity. He learns the boundaries of the role, the "oughts," "musts" and the "shoulds" of the system. In terms of organizations, socialization can be interpreted as an attempt to modify previous behavioural dispositions of a new entrant. Failure to achieve an optimal congruence between earlier socialization and organization modification may lead to alienation. The note on alienation (Part II) focuses on some of the structural contributions to the feelings of alienation.
