Critique and International Management: an Uneasy Relationship?
指出国际管理领域长期回避认识论反思和批判性理论发展,并通过八篇专题文章尝试开启元理论对话,适合关注管理学研究范式与权力关系的学者。
Since the early 1980s, scholars in organization and management studies have examined their metatheoretical assumptions with particular regard to the relationships among knowledge, power, and signification. In contrast, the international management field seems to have engaged in a continuous disavowal of epistemic reflexivity and a critical trajectory for theory development. The eight contributions in this special topic forum attempt to open up metatheoretical conversations with international management. This task requires a reflexive reexamination of what we already know and a commitment to bring others' voices into an ongoing rewriting of the field.
