Handbooks in Philosophy Handbook of Philosophy of Management (Hardcover)

The Handbook of Philosophy of Management addresses the philosophical foundations of management in theory and practice. It covers established branches of philosophy such as aesthetics epistemology moral philosophy political and social philosophy philosophy of education philosophy of practice and philosophy of science. The Handbook s broad scope maps out the field and provides a forum where philosophy can be meaningfully applied to the study of management in all its forms. The original peer-reviewed research published here sheds new light on the complexities of management theory and practice beyond what hitherto has been possible with the sole application of the social sciences. As philosophy provides a meta-framework for moving beyond paradigm fragmentation within management research and education this allows researchers and practitioners to find harmony (and discord) in the perspectives revealed by a philosophical lens.
