Description
Drawing upon a range of influential contemporary movements in the social sciences such as the Critical Theory of the Frankfurt School, this text provides a wide-ranging analysis of management and its various specialisms.
The book offers critical understandings of key areas of management theory and practice such as: accounting; strategic management; marketing; business ethics; and environmental management.
The leading international contributors also examine:
- the relations between power and discursive practices in the modern corporation
- the role of architecture as a repressive and emancipatory force in organizations
- gender and organizations and critical methodology for organizational research.
Key issues of power/knowledge relations across these areas are addressed and new agendas both for these fields and for management studies as a whole are introduced.
