指出组织研究长期忽视种姓制度,尽管它影响全球超10亿人并导致3亿多人遭受歧视。作者认为种姓是根植于身体与神圣的深层制度,难以消除,并呼吁学者研究其对工作场所、制度工作、不稳定就业和现代奴隶制的影响,以应对重大挑战和建设包容性组织。

Abstract

The caste system has received scant attention in organization studies, despite persisting over thousands of years, influencing the socioeconomic lives of over a billion people around the world and subjecting over 300 million people to severe socioeconomic discrimination. By overlooking caste, scholars risk conforming subaltern empirics to imperialist knowledge and miss the nuance and complexity that caste can bring to organization studies. We argue that the caste system is an institution that affects the workplace, yet it is difficult to dismantle because of its rooting in bodies and the sacred, which strips away agency. As an institution that is deeply embodied, caste has implications for institutional work, precarious work and modern slavery. We conclude with a call for scholarly engagement with caste to study its implications in the pursuit of grand challenges and inclusive organizations.
