Abstract

Corporate governance has been a hot topic, in both research and practice during the past two decades. We have seen a proliferation of research taking different perspectives on governance issues. In-depth historical studies of the evolution of governance systems and practices can provide new insight into our understanding of the key questions of today. In particular, business history helps to shed more light on the great variety and complexity of governance systems that are often overlooked in managerialist analyses. This volume provides an important contribution to the historical study of corporate governance. This collection includes a variety of theoretical and methodological perspectives that can be used in historical analysis of corporate governance. The chapters focus on specific historical phenomena and particular periods of time, thus providing a rich overview of the problems and challenges of corporate governance. Characteristic to all articles is a comparative approach that helps to put specific findings into historical perspective. The book offers important insights into key topics in the governance literature such as the relationship between ownership and management, the problems and challenges of family business, and the separation of management and ownership. Other articles also address interesting but often neglected topics, for example governance problems in co-operatives and questions around labour management and worker participation. This volume shows that by widening the perspective and taking a historical approach, business and economic historians have much to offer to the corporate governance literature. The contributors in this volume are all distinguished scholars, within the field of business history. They include both senior scholars as well as younger researchers with a special interest in these topics.

Abstract

This volume elaborates on the intrinsic perspectives on ambiguity as an inherent part of organizational decision-making processes and the more recent strategic perspectives on discursively constructed strategic ambiguity. It helps illuminate the path ahead of organizational scholars and offers new avenues for future research.

Abstract

This volume brings together two hitherto disparate domains of scholarly inquiry: organization and management studies on the one hand, and the study of visual and multimodal communication on the other. Within organization and management studies it has been recognized that organizational reality and communication are becoming increasingly visual, and, more generally, multimodal, whether in digital form or otherwise. Within multimodality studies it has been noted that many forms of contemporary communication are deeply influenced by organizational and managerial communication, as formerly formal and bureaucratic types of communication increasingly adopt promotional language and multimodal document presentation. Visual and Multimodal Research in Organization and Management Studies integrates these two domains of research in a way that will benefit both. In particular, it conceptually and empirically connects recent insights from visual and multimodality studies to ongoing discussions in organization and management theory. Throughout, the book shows how a visual/multimodal lens enriches and extends what we already know about organization, organizations, and practices of organizing, but also how concepts from organization and management studies can be highly productive in further developing insights on visual and multimodal communication. Due to its essentially interdisciplinary objectives, the book will prove inspiring for academics and scholars of management, the sociology of organizations as well as related disciplines such as applied linguistics and visual studies.
