This insightful and innovative book proposes a new theory of
socio-material weaving for studying and understanding family
business. It dissolves the family business into activities,
constituted of the sociality of human interactions and relations
and interwoven with materials that extend in both a bodily-lived
and spatial existential sense. Building on hermeneutic
phenomenology, Mona Ericson explores a new approach to the field,
which shifts focus away from entitized conceptions of family
business contexts. Building on a 'being-in-the-world'
understanding, the book emphasizes human entwinement with
activities in amongst materials. Chapters draw insights from
research on the social and the material, exploring the field
through five unique stories that illustrate the intertwinement of
family business activities and materials associated with buildings
and land. Taking a critical stance towards systems-oriented family
business research, Ericson weaves together the social and the
material in association with narrative truth. An innovative and
imaginative exploration of an established field of study, this book
is crucial reading for scholars, researchers and graduate students
of family business, opening up new ways of approaching the field in
scholarly work. It will also benefit practitioners through
practical insights into the challenges family business owners face
when establishing and managing business activities.
