The field of Critical Management Studies has never been more relevant than it is now. In this new and exciting text, all of the key issues in critical management studies are explored, as prevailing ideologies in management are called into question. Thought-provoking and insightful, this text uses critical theory to explore aspects of management and work as we know it. Key thinkers are introduced and their ideas are explained in an accessible and engaging way, as current trends are traced back to earlier movements. A wide range of international case studies and examples combine theory with practice, showing the relevance of critical management studies in the context of globalization and the financial crisis. - Chapters on ethics, environmentalism and leadership - Extensive pedagogy including case studies, 'think points' and discussion questions - Additional online teaching material including class activities This text is essential reading for any undergraduate or postgraduate student studying Critical Management Studies, or any management course with a critical slant. A critical look at today's challenges, this made-for-classroom resource questions the assumptions of an "old school" management education system, and turns the spotlight on management education for people and planet. -- Jonas Haertle 'This is an urgent text. It insists that management education should indeed be education, not indoctrination. For the authors, education always carries the promise of emancipation from the exploitations of the working world for both students and teachers, and the liberation of this planet from ignorance of those who would plunder it. The authors rightly trust that given the right critical tools and resources, management students can recognise and confront the propaganda issued by many business schools and business scholars on such topics as leadership and globalisation. This book provides those crucial tools and resources.' -- Stefano Harney 'This book includes crucial reflection to prepare managers, students and teachers to go deeper into topics, get fired up, and take critical management action.' -- David M. Boje, Wells Fargo Professor Distinguished University Professor
