Research Seminar
Embodiment and Organization
Convened by Natasha Slutskaya and Ruth Simpson, Brunel Business School
Tuesday, September 27th 2011
Venue:
Goodenough College
The inclusion of the body in the inquiry happening in the field of
organization studies can be regarded as a critical and reflective
response to the social changes which have brought the body to the
forefront of contemporary struggle and debate. This seminar will explore
how the body is treated in the field of organization studies. In so
doing, this seminar seeks to challenge the disembodied view of
organization and to redress a tendency for analyses of organization to
be disembodied in ways that marginalize the body as a medium of
organizing practices.
