Abstract: Abstract We argue that business schools accelerate and reinforce intellectual, emotional, and philosophical fragmentation. They compartmentalize knowledge in disciplines that have no explicit connections to one another and with no incentives to make connections. They reduce knowledge ultimately to a single school of thought such as classical economic theory, and in particular, theories of short-term, self interested profit maximization. Then they treat this single school of thought, which is not robust enough to account for everything, as a “totality” or “reality.”
