Chapter Chapter 3 in Understanding Workplace Bullying, 2020, pp 25-38 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract This chapter argues that research can never be a rationalized and objective investigation; on the contrary, it is a highly political process. Management now emerges as a contested activity which is influenced by the historical and structural frameworks of the society, with workplace bullying being conceptualized as an outcome of the capitalist values and preferences. This appropriates the choice of the methodological design of dialectical phenomenology, a combination of critical theory and phenomenology, which enables subjecting the bullying experiences of the victims to critical evaluation.
