Organizational Paradox - Bok av Medhanie Gaim - Häftad

Paradoxes, contrary propositions that are not contestable separately but that are inconsistent when conjoined, constitute a pervasive feature of contemporary organizational life. When contradictory elements are constituted as equally important in day-to-day work, organizational actors frequently experience acute tensions in engaging with these contradictions. This Element discusses the presence of paradoxes in the life of organizations, introduces the reader to the notion of paradox in theory and..

Mr Bligh's Bad Language - Passion, Power and Theatre on the Bounty - Bok av Greg (University of Melbourne) Dening - Häftad

Captain Bligh and the mutiny on the Bounty have become proverbial in their capacity to evoke the extravagant and violent abuse of power. But William Bligh was one of the least violent disciplinarians in the British navy. It is this paradox which inspired Greg Dening to ask why the mutiny took place. Part of the key lies in the curious puzzle of Mr Bligh's bad language.

Technology and Culture in Pharaonic Egypt - Bok av Martin Fitzenreiter - Häftad

Technology and Culture in Pharaonic Egypt - Bok av Martin Fitzenreiter - Häftad

The inherent paradox of Egyptology is that the objective of its study -- people living in Egypt in Pharaonic times -- are never the direct object of its studies. Egyptology, as well as archaeology in general, approaches ancient lives through material (and sometimes immaterial) remains. This Element explores how, through the interplay of things and people -- of non-human actants and human actors -- Pharaonic material culture is shaped. In turn, it asks how, through this interplay, Pharaonic culture..
