Abstract:
The papers in this e-book originate from the 4th International Critical Management Studies Conference held at Cambridge University in July 2005. The articles look at the way in which management and organization theory has viewed space and time as significant resources and they put forward a number of more contemporary views as to how space and time is both managed and experienced. The papers recognize time and space as social constructions and thus open to 'reconstruction'. Space and time are not simple a priori categories that are fixed, immutable absolutes and knowable entities. The recognition of the intersubjective 'nature' of space and time is shown to help us better appreciate the different manner in which space and time is experienced and the manner in which space and time are used in the management of change.
