Discourse analysis has become increasingly popular in
organizational studies over the past decade or two. The SAGE
Handbook of Organizational Discourse will make it even more popular
by helping scholars of organizations understand the range of
domains, methodologies, perspectives and focal organizational
phenomena available to them within this analytic approach. Beyond
classifying and describing current literature in the various areas,
the chapters in this important new handbook suggest new directions
for research using discourse analysis, a valuable service that
should help novice and experienced researchers alike' - "JoAnne
Yates, Sloan School of Management"
An increasingly significant body of management literature is
applying discursive forms of analysis to a range of organizational
issues. This emerging arena of research is not only important in
providing new insights into processes of organizing, it has also
informed and influenced the broader fields of organizational and
management studies.
The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Discourse is the definitive
text for those with research and teaching interests in the field of
organizational discourse. It provides an important overview of the
domains of study, methodologies and perspectives used in research
on organizational discourse. It shows how discourse analysis has
moved beyond its roots in literary theory to become an important
approach in the study of organizations.
The editors of the Handbook, all renowned authors and experts in
this field, have provided an invaluable resource on the
application, importance and relevance of discourse to
organizational issues for use by tutors and researchers working in
the field, as well as providing important reference material for
newcomers to this area. Each chapter, written by a leading author
on their subject, covers an overview of the existing literature and
also frames the future of the field in ways which challenge
existing preconceptions.
The SAGE Handbook of Organizational Discourse is indispensable
to the teaching, study and research of organizational discourse and
will enable readers to develop a level of understanding of
organizations commensurate with the most recent, state of the art,
theoretical developments in the broader field of organization
studies.
