This work examines the rise of postmodernism in management
scholarship and argues that the prevalence of postmodernist thought
reflects a lack of understanding by management researchers of the
core principles upon which Western business endeavour is based. The
author highlights postmodernism's methodological and conceptual
failings, such as disbelief in material progress and economic
advancement, and its denial of generalizable laws to direct
management research. In its place, the author proposes a return to
traditional modernist principles in management research, based on
scientific evidence. This ground breaking, timely work will spark
debate and challenge previously accepted claims of postmodernism, a
nice retort to the anti-business/anti-capitalist literature now
prevalent in academia.
