Rezensionen

"Demonstrating the value of a robust history of ideas framework in management learning, this book can help management scholars learn a great deal about the origins, development, and deficits of management theory." David Jacobs, American University, USA

"Value has long remained absent or at best marginal in critically-oriented organization studies. In this timely book, Frederick Harry Pitts argues that we cannot avoid addressing this notion to confront the current multiple crises of capitalism. He then guides us into recovering Marx's critique of political economy to grasp how objects, people and relations acquire worth (or not) under capitalism. This exciting journey into valorisation, class composition, metabolic rift, and social reproduction sets up a renewed intellectual and political agenda that no organizational scholar committed to struggles for change should miss." Patrizia Zanoni, Professor and Chair in Organisation Studies, Utrecht School of Governance, Netherlands
