Book Description
Esta obra tiene como propósito plantear, desde una perspectiva latinoamericana, una discusión en torno a algunos conceptos, problemas, temáticas, teorías y categorías que conforman el pensamiento administrativo y desde los cuales se producen comprensiones y propuestas de transformación de la realidad. Desde la administración y los estudios organizacionales, se hace necesario desmarcarse de formas tradicionales de explicación en relación con las organizaciones, los elementos que las constituyen, los efectos derivados de su operación y las oportunidades y retos a ellas asociados. Este esfuerzo implica tener conciencia del locus de enunciación, de las características y problemáticas de los contextos, de la necesidad de superar la difusión acrítica del pensamiento hegemónico, que termina por instaurar una forma de ser y estar de las organizaciones, del trabajo y de la gestión, así como de su hacer y de la manera de entenderlas. Este libro de investigación se dirige a todos los interesados y especialistas en el análisis de temáticas de vanguardia en estudios organizacionales y de administración. La presente publicación es fruto del trabajo coordinado entre la Facultad de Administración de Empresas de la Universidad Externado de Colombia, el Departamento de Administración de la Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana (UAM-Azcapotzalco) y el Posgrado en Estudios Organizacionales de la UAM-Iztapalapa, a partir de una relación académica previa con el Nodo Perspectivas de la Administración y la Concepción Organizacional Contemporáneas (PACOC), perteneciente a la Red Mexicana de Investigadores en Estudios Organizacionales (REMINEO).

Modern Organizations
Author: Stewart Clegg
Publisher: SAGE
ISBN: 9780803983304
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 278
Book Description
This wide-ranging analysis both explores current approaches to organization studies and relates the concepts of modernity and postmodernity to the realities of organizational structure and context. In surveying alternative perspectives on organizations in terms of ideal types, systems, contingencies, ecologies, cultures, markets and efficiency, Clegg demonstrates that no single approach is adequate to deal with the real-world variety of organizations that exist. Drawing upon unusual and revealing examples - the production of French bread, Italian fashion and `post-Confucian' Asian enterprises - he argues that their success cannot be reduced to `culture' but must incorporate a fuller understanding of the ways in which organi

World Anthropologies
Author: Gustavo Lins Ribeiro
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1000184498
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 352
Book Description
Since its inception, anthropology's authority has been based on the assumption that it is a unified discipline emanating from the West. In an age of heightened globalization, anthropologists have failed to discuss consistently the current status of their practice and its mutations across the globe. World Anthropologies is the first book to provoke this conversation from various regions of the world in order to assess the diversity of relations between regional or national anthropologies and a contested, power-laden Western discourse. Can a planetary anthropology cope with both the 'provincial cosmopolitanism' of alternative anthropologies and the 'metropolitan provincialism' of hegemonic schools? How might the resulting 'world anthropologies' challenge the current panorama in which certain allegedly national anthropological traditions have more paradigmatic weight - and hence more power - than others? Critically examining the international dissemination of anthropology within and across national power fields, contributors address these questions and provide the outline for a veritable world anthropologies project.
