The position and role of the business school and its educational
programmes have become increasingly prominent, yet also questioned
and contested. What management education entails, and how it is
enacted, has become a matter of profound concern in the field of
higher education and, more generally, for the development of the
organized world. Drawing upon the humanities and social sciences,
The Routledge Companion to Reinventing Management Education
imagines a different and better education offered to students of
management, entrepreneurship and organization studies. It is an
intervention into the debates on what is taught and how learning
takes place, demonstrating both the potential and the limits of
what the humanities and social sciences can do for management
education. Divided into six sections, the book traces the history
and theory of management education, reimagining central educational
principles and outlining an emerging practice-based approach. With
an international cast of authors, The Routledge Companion to
Reinventing Management Education has been written for contemporary
and future educators and for students and scholars who seek to make
a difference through their practice.

A pioneering systematic inquiry into-and mapping of-the field of
media and organization Media organize things into patterns and
relations. As intermediaries among people and between people and
worlds, media shape sociotechnical orders. At the same time, media
are organized: while they condition different organizational forms
and processes, they, too, are formed and can be re-formed. This
intimate relation of media and organizing is timeless. Yet
arguably, digital media technologies repose the question of
organization-and thus of power and domination, control and
surveillance, disruption and emancipation. Bringing together
leading media thinkers and organization theorists, this book
interrogates organization as an effect and condition of media. How
can we understand the recursive relation between media and
organization? How can we think, explore, critique, and perhaps
alter the organizational bodies and scripts that shape contemporary
life? Organize will be of interest to scholars and students of new
and old media, social organization, and technology. Moreover, the
dialogical form of these essays provides a concise and
path-breaking view on the recursive relation between technological
media and social organization. The book therefore establishes and
maps "media and organization" as a highly relevant field of
inquiry, appealing to those with a critical interest in the
technological conditioning of the social.
How is performativity shaped by digital technologies - and how do
performative practices reflect and alter techno-social formations?
"Performing the Digital" explores, maps and theorizes the
conditions and effects of performativity in digital cultures.
Bringing together scholars from performance studies, media theory,
sociology and organization studies as well as practitioners of
performance, the contributions engage with the implications of
digital media and its networked infrastructures for modulations of
affect and the body, for performing cities, protest, organization
and markets, and for the performativity of critique.With
contributions by Marie-Luise Angerer, Timon Beyes, Scott deLahunta
and Florian Jenett, Margarete Jahrmann, Susan Kozel, Ann-Christina
Lange, Oliver Leistert, Martina Leeker, Jon McKenzie, Sigrid Merx,
Melanie Mohren and Bernhard Herbordt, Imanuel Schipper and Jens
Schroeter.
Wherever we turn, we find creative practices and creative spaces,
creative organizations and creative subjects. At work or in public
places, in media representations and in advertisements, on social
platforms, in schools and universities: There is a demand to be new
and special, conspicuous and singular. How did this creativity
complex and its imperative to be creative come about? Which terms
and concepts enable us to understand its multiple and partly
contradictory forms and processes? Where are its limits? Gathering
and interweaving 40 short and incisive essays, this companion maps,
investigates and illuminates the contemporary creativity complex.
Mass gatherings are at the center of contemporary discussions about
community formation, communication, and social control. As new
digital technologies and social media platforms have emerged, the
concept of the mass gathering has evolved in parallel to take
account of the different ways masses and crowds may form, including
digital masses like flash mobs and protest groups. At the same
time, these new digital masses provide a remarkable opportunity to
reevaluate the broader historiographical framework surrounding mass
gatherings. With Social Media New Masses, Inge Baxmann, Timon
Beyes, and Claus Pias have brought together a diverse group of
sociologists, media and cultural studies theorists, and historians
of knowledge and technology who, together, outline the contours of
this expanding field of research and analyze the differences
between the old and new conceptions of masses and the distinct
conditions and political consequences for each. Contributors to the
volume include Marie-Luise Angerer, Dirk Baecker, Christian Borch,
Christoph Engemann, Charles Ess, Wolfgang Hagen, Peter Krapp, Mirko
Tobias Sch fer, and Sebastian Vehlken.
