Description

Explore the complex nature of work and management through this academic study from Routledge. Part of the Philosophy and Method in the Social Sciences series, this book examines how management operates through specific objects and processes. It focuses on documents as key management objects, which have received little attention in previous ethnomethodological research. The text introduces the concept of consociation, describing how social organization and patterns of coordinated action occur even when face-to-face communication is not possible. By treating documents and similar artefacts as ordering devices, the authors provide a unique look at how coordination happens across distances. With a specific focus on the experiences of senior managers, this volume offers a description of the interior configuration of the management world. It presents the everyday experiences and practicalities that define senior management roles, making it a valuable resource for those studying anthropology, sociology, and the social sciences.
