Despite all the efforts to promote change, power and authority
still seem to be permanently associated with the white, the
straight and the masculine, both symbolically and in the everyday
world of organizations. As the intricate relationship between the
symbolic and the everyday remains under-researched, this anthology
proposes a transdisciplinary feminist perspective drawing on the
humanities in order to explore the complex nature of the gendered
politics of organizations. Indeed, analyzing how images,
narratives, symbols and bodies are all part of how power and gender
are constructed in organizations through a broad and international
range of empirical studies, Bodies, Symbols and Organizational
Practice explores issues at the interstices of the humanities and
social sciences, combining theoretical and analytical perspectives
from both areas. Providing a radical analysis of the gendered
dynamics of power as well as petitioning for radical intervention
into those dynamics, this timely volume will appeal to postgraduate
students and postdoctoral researchers interested in fields such as:
Organization and Management Studies, Gender studies, Feminist
theory and Sociology of Work & Industry.
