Dear Management History Enthusiasts,
We are pleased to inform you about the opportunity to participate in the Special Issue of the Journal of Management History on the use of Critical Biography as a methodology in our field.
The aim of this special issue is to theoretically and empirically develop the concept of critical biography through explorations of its utility from a ‘bottom-up’ approach. This will be a collective effort by those who ‘do biography’ in the historical research of management to co-construct the parameters of this method, style, and/or genre in management history. By surfacing how critical approaches might help rediscover the emancipatory potential of writing differently, deconstructing the individual and their situated context(s), and revisiting critiques of invidious hierarchies that perpetuate exploitative and socially irresponsible forms of management praxis, this call for papers aim to advance the field of management history.
