商品描述

In the fields of management and organization, there is an ongoing debate about different ontological assumptions about people in and around organizations, and the dangers of self-fulling prophecies, i.e., the phenomena in which unsubstantiated, unethical, or dysfunctional assumptions about people can lead to adverse practical consequences. This open access book advances this debate, but in a self-reflexive direction, asking: Who do we, as scholars in the fields of management and organization, think we are? What ontological assumptions about ourselves do we live by? Do we think we are something "special", a 'Homo Academicus', distinctively separated from the life-world of managers and employees but linked with other academics such as, say, philosophers and sociologists? If so, what are the consequences and implications of such assumptions?
Part of the popular Palgrave Debates in Business and Management series, each of the chapters disclose, problematize, and criticize different ontological assumptions about 'Homo Academicus' that underpins research in the fields of management and organization. It will be of great interest to management and organization scholars and students, as well as those with a broader interest in methodology and critical studies.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

在管理與組織領域中,關於組織內外人員的不同本體論假設以及自我實現預言的危險性(即,對人員的無根據、不道德或功能失調的假設可能導致不利的實際後果的現象)仍然存在著持續的辯論。本書作為開放存取的著作,推進了這一辯論,但以自我反思的方向進行,提出了以下問題:作為管理與組織領域的學者,我們認為自己是誰?我們遵循什麼樣的本體論假設?我們是否認為自己是某種「特別」的存在,即「Homo Academicus」,與經理和員工的生活世界明顯區隔,但又與其他學者(例如,哲學家和社會學家)相連?如果是這樣,這些假設的後果和意涵是什麼?

本書是受歡迎的 Palgrave Debates in Business and Management 系列的一部分,每一章都揭示、問題化並批評支撐管理與組織領域研究的「Homo Academicus」的不同本體論假設。這將對管理與組織的學者和學生,以及對方法論和批判研究有更廣泛興趣的人士,具有極大的吸引力。
