Critical Management Studies (CMS) has emerged as a movement that
questions the authority and relevance of mainstream thinking and
practice. Critical of established social practices and
institutional arrangements, it challenges prevailing systems of
domination and promotes the development of alternatives to them.
CMS draws upon diverse critical traditions. Of particular
importance for its initial articulation was the thinking of members
of the Frankfurt School of Critical Theory. From these foundations,
CMS has grown into a pluralistic and inclusive movement
incorporating a diverse range of perspectives--ranging from labour
process theory to radical feminism. In recent times, a set of ideas
broadly labelled "poststructuralist" have been developed to
complement and challenge the insights of Critical Theory, giving
new impetus for scholars seeking to challenge the status quo and
articulate a more inclusive and humane future for management
practice.
The Oxford Handbook of Critical Management Studies provides an
overview of theoretical approaches, key topics, issues, and subject
specialisms in management studies, as well as a set of reflections
on the progress and prospects of CMS. Contributors are all
specialists in the respective fields and share a concern to
interrogate and challenge received wisdom about management theory
and practice. Given the rapid growth of the CMS movement, its ever
increasing theoretical and geographical diversity and its outreach
into the public sphere, The Oxford Handbook of Critical Management
Studies is a timely publication. In addition to UK contributors,
where CMS has developed most rapidly, there is strong
representation from North American contributors as well as from
areas where CMS has taken hold more recently, such as Australasia.
