‘... The point is to change it’ – Yes, but in what direction and how? Intellectual activism as a way of ‘walking the talk’ of critical work in business schools
呼吁商学院学者拥抱一种特定的知识分子行动主义,借鉴黑人女性主义和后殖民学者的思想,将思想的力量服务于社会正义,并指出学者如何在批判工作中“言行一致”。
This article is a call to embrace and work towards a specific form of intellectual activism in business schools. Based on the inspiring work of Professor Patricia Hill Collins and other Black feminist and post-colonial scholars, intellectual activism is here defined as ‘the myriad ways in which people place the power of their ideas in service to social justice’. This article calls for and delineates a positive response to the current crisis by identifying key features and areas of work that scholars can engage with in ‘walking the talk’ of critical work in business schools.
