Eirik Irgens

Pluralism in Management (eBook, ePUB)

Organizational Theory, Management Education, and Ernst Cassirer

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In Pluralism in Management, author Eirik Irgens utilizes Ernst Cassirer's pluralistic philosophy in order to investigate how different but connected forms of knowing, including art, myth, religion, science, and history may help us become better organizational scholars and management educators, forcing us to consider elements outside of a purely practical existence. Revitalizing Cassirer's almost forgotten philosophy, the book illustrates the value of philosophical application to organizational study.
