Recenzii
“My
read
of
this
short
text
(78
pages)
is
that
the
authors
have
most
certainly
been
successful
on
the
first
front
and
have
taken
the
field
another
valuable
step
toward
the
second.
…
this
book
has
much
to
recommend.
Analyzing
popular
culture
narratives,
this
research
effectively
describes
the
narratives
of
three
business
industries.
It
does
this
quite
well.”

Textul de pe ultima copertă
This
book
challenges
the
widely-held
belief
that
popular
narratives
about
business
are
invariably
critical.
It
develops
a
more
nuanced
analytic
model
of
private
sector
narrative
and
applies
it
to
63
recent
narrative
texts
(movies,
histories,
biographies)
produced
in
the
US
dealing
with
three
major
industries:
information
technology,
automobile
manufacturing,
and
financial
trading.
It
identifies
recurring
patterns
to
compare
sectors
and
to
analyze
their
implications.Negotiating
Business
Narrativesappeals
to
academics
and
practitioners
interested
in
business
and
society,
strategic
management,
and
contemporary
literature
and
films
about
business.
Caracteristici
Engages
with
an
important
aspect
of
contemporary
culture
(movies,
novels,
biographies,
histories
about
business)
in
a
thoughtful,
rigorous,
and
accessible
way
Demonstrates
that
how
we
as
a
society
think
about
business
is
strongly
influenced
by
the
way
it
is
represented
in
these
texts
This,
in
turn,
influences
key
personal
decisions,
such
as
career
choice,
and
key
public
policy
decisions,
such
as
the
regulation
of
business
Examines
texts’
influence
on
social
discourse
and
the
circulation
and
reproduction
within
popular
culture
of
the
narrative
structures
they
instantiate
