Management Education and Humanities

Edited by Pasquale Gagliardi and Barbara Czarniawska

in Books from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Management Education and Humanities argues that management teachers and researchers seem to be increasingly dissatisfied with the way managers are usually educated in western countries. It claims that educational practices and methods would greatly benefit from reflection on the implicit assumptions and paradigms behind those practices, and debates the role that humanism and humanities might play in the formation of new managerial élites.
