Abstract
This study aims to incorporate a reasoning generated from phenomenology and the sociology of knowledge into the analysis of business partnership. The core conceptions in this study are the control of knowledge and reflexivity. This study applied these concepts to the advancement of practitioners’reasoning capability, for institutional change. In-depth interview data taken from a pharmaceutical corporation with laboratories located in the Tokyo area provide enrichment to bridge the gap between theoretical argument and practitioners’ experiences.Keywords
