Over the last few decades, the field of management enlarged its
boundaries, especially in international terms, in a very rapid
fashion-mainly because of the arrival of the so-called era of
globalization. Many renowned scholars have criticized the universal
approach given to 'management' in the United States and its
subsequent automatic conversion into 'international management, '
but their arguments too can fall into the trap of universalism at
times. This book has a more specific concern: to challenge the
conversion of 'management' into 'international management' from a
Latin American perspective. This challenge might be taken as a
first step toward the construction of a Latin American perspective
in International Management and a potential contribution to the
development of this field in other parts of the world.
Drawing upon such critical standpoint, several authors in the
book converge upon the idea that researchers, practitioners and
authorities in Latin America should challenge the US dominance in
International Management and foster interdisciplinary developments
within International Relations. The critical perspective provided
in this book challenges the US's narrow viewpoint on management as
it clearly does not fit the governance features of 'international
management' in Latin America. So far, we have not observed the
constitution of sub-areas such as international management of
international organizations, international management of
transnational institutions, international management of
public-private networks, international management of public
companies, and international public administration or international
public management, all of which would be extremely important in
Latin America.
