International and Cross-Cultural Management Studies: A Postcolonial Reading

by G Jack, Robert Westwood, Jack Gavin, et al.

Book Overview

Drawing on postcolonial theory this text offers a critique of international management. It argues that such disciplines are Western discourses and exhibit historical and current resonances with the vicissitudes of the so called 'colonial project'. The book explores alternative approaches to the question of the 'other' in late global capitalism.
