There has, in recent times, been an increasing interest in history,
broadly defined, among management scholars. But what specifically a
historical approach or perspective can contribute to research on
organizational fields, organizations, strategy etc. and how exactly
such historical research should be carried out remain questions
that have been answered only partially, if at all. Building on the
authors' prior and ongoing work, History in Management and
Organization Studies: From Margins to Mainstream is unique in
presenting a comprehensive and integrated view of how history has
informed management research with a focus on organization theory
and strategy. More specifically, the volume provides an overview of
how the relationship been history and management scholarship has
evolved from the 19th century until today, focusing mainly on the
post-World War II period; and systematically surveys the kind of
research programs within organization theory and strategy that have
used historical data and/or history as a theoretical construct,
while also identifying the remaining "blind spots". As a whole, it
offers a kind of roadmap for management scholars and historians to
situate their research and, hopefully, find new roads for others to
travel. The book is intended for anybody conducting or planning to
conduct historical research within management and organization
studies, and aims, in particular, at becoming a standard feature of
research methods courses in business schools and departments of
management.
