520 3 _aThe garbage cna theory of organizatonal choice is one of the best-known innovations in modern organization theory. It also has signifcantly shaped a major banch of the new institutionalism. Yet, the theory has not received the systematic assesment that it both deserver and needs. we evaluate the early verbal theory and argue tat it fails to create an adequate foundation for scientific progress. We then analyse and rerun Cohen, March, and Olsen`s computer model and discover that its agents move in lockstep patterns that are strikingly diferent from the spirit of the theory. Indeed, the simulation and the theory areincompatible. Next, we examine how the authors have built upon these incompatible formulations in developing the theory further. we assess this larger program, which includes the March_Olsen version of the new institutionalism, and find that many of the problems that attended the original article have intensified over time. We conclude that a fundamental overhaul is required if the theory is to realize its early promise
