3rd International Conference on Critical Management Studies
Critique and Inclusivity: Opening the Agenda
7-9 July 2003, Lancaster University Management School, Lancaster, UK
If social and psychic life are all based upon inclusion-exclusion
relations, how are the borders between what is included and excluded
precariously managed? In contemporary times, who gets to be a citizen and
on what terms? Where is the 'terrorist' and can 'we' organise
against 'them'? Which of us are properly 'diverse', and which of us are
instead, perverse? How do 'western' management practices and scholarship
collude with colonialist values? Has Marx and the economic been sidelined
by the 'cultural turn' in critical theory? Is critical theory excluded
in policy making and public debate? Why do particular technologies
become institutions in organisations, and other get rejected? How does
collaboration in organisations close off possibilities for change? Has the
legacy of the cold war on management been forgotten? In terms of
inclusivity has 'critical management studies' itself generated a
fantasy of an unbound, all-inclusive criticality?
To explore the idea of critique and inclusivity further, we invite
contributions from a range of disciplines along the lines of the streams
below. We hope you will have a very enjoyable conference with us at
Lancaster. We look forward to welcoming you and working with you.
