The Aesthetics of Organization

Editat de Stephen Andrew Linstead, Heather Joy Höpfl
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 apr 2000
Organizational aesthetics, both as a body of theory and a method of inquiry, is a rapidly expanding area of the organizational sciences. The Aesthetics of Organization accessibly draws key contributions delineating the emerging parameters of the field. It explains the significance of concepts devised by postmodern thinkers, through which emerge meaning and order in organizations. Methodological problems associated with investigations of the aesthetic are also highlighted so the reader can identify and understand the importance of recent ideas on vision, perspective and periphery for learning in organizations. Through the contributions of leading international theorists, organizational aesthetics is defined in greater historical and theoretical depth, with a broad conceptual and practical range which academics will find invaluable.

Descriere

The Aesthetics of Organization examines the possibility of developing an aesthetics of organization as a field of inquiry within organization studies. The authors delineate the parameters of the field by bringing together contributions of leading international theorists, which: explain how meaning and order become real in an organization; highlight methodological problems associated with investigations of the aesthetic; and facilitate understanding of the importance of recent ideas on vision, perspective and periphery for learning in organizations.
