The current world is absurd. Faced with climate change, health
pandemics, and ever-growing inequality, it is striking how
globally, governments and organizations are malingering to find
effective responses to these crises, leading to absurd situations
where we are facing the destruction of the planet, while humankind
is not making the necessary transformation towards truly
sustainable societies and workplaces. Focusing on these grand,
global challenges from an absurdity and hypernormalization lens,
the book aims to elucidate what is happening in contemporary
society and workplaces, why there is so little improvement being
made in relation to the grand global challenges, and how a more
sustainable social transformation can be made in organizations. It
offers a wide, yet in-depth, perspective on absurdity in society
and the workplace and presents a theoretical framework, as well as
in-depth case studies of sectors or organizations where absurdity
manifests itself. Presenting an overarching new perspective on
society and workplaces, this book helps students and academics make
sense of what is currently unfolding, and what can be done. The
book therefore bridges theory, science and the everyday practice of
organizational life, and how individuals working in a variety of
organizations can contribute to more sustainable economies and
societies.
