Chapter 25 in Handbook of Historical Methods for Management, 2023, pp 374-395 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: Embodied microhistories on the move constitute a qualitative method that integrates the tradition of microhistory with walking and materiality-sensitive approaches. Reflecting on its use in the context of an urban planning case, the chapter explores how the historic living of a space can be methodologically grasped by drawing on sensory and embodied ways of collecting urban microhistories. In reporting the practical use of embodied microhistories on the move in the observed urban project, we offer methodological reflections on how the approach contributes to microhistory, and materiality-related organizational research, within and beyond a focus on organizational spaces, and on the city as an organized place.
