This book addresses how various social theories contribute key insights into the nature of organizations and management. The cast of characters to be found in this book have had a transcendental impact, including on the practices of the management and organization disciplines. For students, however, engaging with social theory in a conversation that is much broader and potentially richer than those that may have been previously encountered is not at first easy. The question is where to begin: this book provides answers. Drawing on research from international contributors, this valuable textbook is an essential resource for students and introduces key social theories and theorists making them accessible to a management audience. The chapters include objectives and end-of-chapter reflective questions, as well as a glossary for readers grappling with new terms. 606 $aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy 606 $aSociology$xHistory 615 0$aSocial sciences$xPhilosophy. 615 0$aSociology$xHistory. 676 $a300.1 676 $a302.35 702 $aClegg$b Stewart 702 $aCunha$b Miguel Pina e 801 0$bOCoLC-P 801 1$bOCoLC-P 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910808360103321 996 $aManagement, organizations and contemporary social theory$93916138 997 $aUNINA
