This book demonstrates the importance of understanding how
political rhetoric, financial reporting and media coverage of
austerity in transnational contexts is significant to the
communicative, social and economic environments in which we live.
It considers how aspects of moral storytelling, language,
representation and ideology operate through societies in financial
crisis and through governments that impose austerity programmes on
public spending. Whilst many of the debates covered here are
concerned with UK economic policy and British social contexts, the
contributions also consider examples from other countries that
reflect similar concerns on the ideological operations of austerity
and financial discourse. The multiple discursive contexts of
austerity demonstrate the breadth of social concerns and conflicts
that have developed in societies and institutions following the
global economic crisis of 2008. Through its interdisciplinary focus
on this topic, this book provides an important contribution across
multiple subject areas, with shared interests in critical and
analytical approaches to discourse, power and language in social
contexts reflecting the healthy collaborative scope of critical
discourse studies as a field of research. This book was originally
published as a special issue of Critical Discourse Studies.

An understanding of identity is fundamental to a complete
understanding of organizational life. While conventional management
textbooks nod to in-groups, cohesion and discrimination, this text
offers instead a deeper, more nuanced understanding of why people,
groups and organizations behave the way they do. With conceptions
of identity perhaps less stable than they have ever been, the
authors make complex theoretical issues accessible to the reader
through the use of lively examples from popular culture. The
authors present an overview of the key issues, as well as an
examination of cutting-edge research and topical forces currently
re-defining identity, such as globalisation, the fair trade
movement and online identities. This text is a succinct, relevant
and exciting overview of the field of identity studies as it
relates to business and management and applied social sciences, an
is an invaluable resource to undergraduate and postgraduate
students of management on any course that has an identity
component.
