Abstract

In Chapter 2, the EVL model is discussed as a neglected brick in the organizational commitment (OC) research.

In the well-known paradigm of Exit, Voice and Loyalty, suggested in 1970 by Albert Hirschman, Loyalty is barely elaborated. Hirschman himself concentrated on Exit as an economic means of coping with unsatisfied state, or Voice as a mode of political struggle to halt the system deterioration. Loyalty is treated as a residual category, reserved for those who have neither Exit alternatives nor will to fight for a change (Voice). It has been also indicated above that Hirschman’s provocative EVL model is hardly cited or researched in organizational behavior in general and OC in particular.
