On retrotopias

Barbara Czarniawska

Scandinavian Journal of Management, 2018, vol. 34, issue 4, 349-353

Abstract: In his last book, Zygmunt Bauman attracted the attention of the readers to a contemporary phenomenon – a nostalgia for the past, which not necessarily existed. In this text I analyze three examples of such retrotopias, originating in various kinds of dysphoria – technological, political and academic.
