Toward more reflexive, empowering, and ethical metaphorical organizational research
基于精神分析理论,提出一个隐喻生产与使用的新框架,将隐喻视为无意识欲望挣扎的症状,推动组织研究更反思、赋权且伦理。
This study aims to take forward Gareth Morgan’s call for more reflexivity and self-deconstruction in metaphorical organizational research by developing a novel framework for the production and use of metaphors. Drawing on psychoanalytic theorizing, this framework seeks to move the field toward an approach to metaphors in which metaphors can be explored as symptoms of our struggles with unconscious desire. This, in turn, offers opportunities for engaging in more reflexive, empowering, and ethical metaphorical research.
