From Interpretation to Interruption
Qualitative analysis is, inherently, a complex, messy and nuanced process. In the context of contested notions of validity, for novice researchers there is therefore an attraction in adopting established, systematic and formulaic approaches. Yet, in prioritising methodical processes, over critical engagement and methodologically coherent quality criteria, these approaches can risk limiting research to a process of cataloguing and reporting face v…
La economía política de la seguridad alimentaria en comunidades mapuche de la Araucanía- Chile
El presente artículo pretende analizar el impacto de las políticas macroeconímocas e indigenas de la Concertación en la seguridad alimentaria familiar en unas comunidades mapuches del sector Ayjarewe de Xuf-Xuf. Con este propósito el autor reseña las tansformaciones en la macroeconomía y sistema alimenticio nacional efectuadas por el modelo neoliberal y las busca relacionar con los fenomenos locales percibidos, principalmente la asimilación del s…

La economía en el siglo XXI
La ola reciente de ampliación histórica del sistema mundial organizador llamado el capitalismo nos brinda la ocasión de reflexionar sobre su realidad y acerca de cómo estudiamos las interacciones entre el capitalismo y las diversas culturas del mundo. Este trabajo nos acerca al tema por medio de una exploración de la fuente principal de nuestro entendimiento de tales procesos: la economía académica. La economía académica ha jugado un papel import…
More than a checkpoint
In the UK, all doctoral programmes are expected to include some form of periodic progression assessment, with individual institutions having autonomy to design and implement their own structures. Yet, despite the potential significance of this assessment to individual doctoral journeys, the design of progression assessment processes has previously received very limited attention. This paper reports on a study which investigated doctoral students'…
An ‘Inhumanist’ School
This review article offers an introductory overview of a distinctive broadly ‘deconstructive’ body of work which deserves to be more widely known. Two books in particular, by Claire Colebrook, Tom Cohen and J. Hillis Miller, are an especial focus, with their uncompromising readings of many of the assumptions and evasions in the environmental humanities. These are Theory and the Disappearing Future: On de Man, On Benjamin (London, Routledge, 2012)…
Introduction
Reading against the Forces of Boredom
This paper offers an anxious survey of factors inducing boredom or indifference in the readership of environmental writing and criticism. The first is the inertia of limited assumptions in writers and critics about how to engage readers’ attention, with inadequate ideas of what ‘genuine reading’ would be. Secondly and more insidiously, modern readers are usually now immersed in consumerist cultural contexts actively geared to encourage boredom as…
Processing into Dominance
In 66 CE, the emperor Nero crowned the Parthian prince Tiridates I king of Armenia before the Roman people in the Forum Romanum. Much scholarship on Roman interactions with Parthia or Armenia focuses on histories of military conflict or diplomatic negotiation. Ritual and ceremonial evidence, however, is often taken for granted. This article uses the coronation to highlight a different way in which Rome articulated its relations with Parthia and A…

Ecological Grief and Anthropocene Horror
Ecological Grief and Anthropocene Horror Timothy Clark (bio) Today every question is already the question of everything. -Maurice Blanchot This paper contrasts what it schematizes as "ecological grief" with a broader, more common but conceptually elusive phenomenon of "Anthropocene horror." "Ecological grief" was described in this issue's call for papers as "an emotional experience brought on by the actual or anticipated loss of cherished natural…
‘But the real problem is….’
This paper offers an overview of the chameleonic nature of overpopulation as an environmental issue, and of the relative evasion of population as an issue in ecocriticism and elsewhere: the very multiplicity of environmental factors means that population pressure can always seem to be finessed as “really” something else. Overpopulation looks drastically different as an issue, depending on whether it is considered at the level of the nation state,…
What on World is the Earth
This paper develops a concept of the terrestrial as an abyssal boundary to the thinkable, looking to David Wood's deconstructive eco-phenomenology. The main section deploys this concept of the terrestrial to read various accounts and images of the sight of the whole earth from space. This then suggests a reading of Derrida's arguments on the ‘fiction of the world’. This material is framed at both ends of the paper by consideration of the “Anthrop…

Altitude, life expectancy and mortality from ischaemic heart disease, stroke, COPD and cancers
BACKGROUND: There is a substantial variation in life expectancy across US counties, primarily owing to differentials in chronic diseases. The authors' aim was to examine the association of life expectancy and mortality from selected diseases with altitude. METHODS: The authors used data from the National Elevation Dataset, National Center for Heath Statistics and US Census. The authors analysed the crude association of mean county altitude with l…
The Cambridge Introduction to Literature and the Environment
The degrading environment of the planet is something that touches everyone. This 2011 book offers an introductory overview of literary and cultural criticism that concerns environmental crisis in some form. Both as a way of reading texts and as a theoretical approach to culture more generally, 'ecocriticism' is a varied and fast-changing set of practices which challenges inherited thinking and practice in the reading of literature and culture. Th…
Communication, Organizing and Organization
This paper provides an overview of previous work that has explored the processes and mechanisms by which communication constitutes organizing (as ongoing efforts at coordination and control of activity and knowledge) and organizations (as collective actors that are 'talked' into existence). We highlight differences between existing theories and analyses grounded in communication-as-constitutive (CCO) perspectives and describe six overarching prem…

Some Climate Change Ironies
This paper considers the deconstructive force of climate change in intellectual and political life, especially as it undermines and challenges the terms of consumer democracy and the liberal tradition in political thought. The first half of the paper gauges this deconstructive force in relation to Derrida's legacy, arguing that environmental questions open an arena of deconstructive events foreclosed in Derrida's own work. The second half conside…
Between Innovation and Legitimation— Boundaries and Knowledge Flow in Management Consultancy
Management consultancy is seen by many as a key agent in the adoption of new management ideas and practices in organizations. Two contrasting views are dominant—consultants as innovators, bringing new knowledge to their clients or as legitimating client knowledge. Those few studies which examine directly the flow of knowledge through consultancy in projects with clients favour the innovator view and highlight the important analytical and practica…
Can a Place Think? On Adam Sharr’s Heidegger’s Hut
This review article engages with the architect Adam Sharr’s Heidegger’s Hut (2006), a study of Martin Heidegger’s work hut at Todtnauberg, and also with Heidegger’s own “essay” on thought at the hut, “From Out of the Experience of Thinking” (written 1947). The article traces a tension between some intellectual assumptions in the mode of presentation chosen by Sharr and the provocation of Heidegger’s thinking. The challenge of Heidegger’s thinking…
Configuring expert knowledge
This study defines an aspect of consultant knowledge that provides credibility without claiming unrealistic status for a field like consulting. Our focus is the “sector knowledge” that consultants accumulate which derives from repeated assignments in the industrial sector in which the client organization resides. This has been under‐researched partly because of an emphasis on knowledge as technique and method. But knowledge configured around the …

Displaying Group Cohesiveness
As perhaps the highest profile group of management speakers in the world, so-called management gurus use their appearances on the international management lecture circuit todisseminate their ideas and to build their personal reputations with audiences of managers. This article examines the use of humour by management gurus during these public performances. Focusing on video recordings of lectures conducted by four leading management gurus (Tom Pe…

New Labour's Big Idea
There can be little doubt that joined-up government (JUG) is one of New Labour's big ideas, alongside their new managerialism. Since New Labour's initial election victory in 1997 and their subsequent second term in 2001, significant resources have been spent in developing ‘joined-up’ strategies for social policy. This ‘big idea’ stretches from Cabinet level with new groups such as the Social Exclusion Unit (SEU) and the Performance and Innovation…

Strangers, Community Miscreants, or Locals
Lynch mob violence was common in the American South between 1880 and 1930 and has been extensively studied by social scientists. Some have asserted that the victims of lynchings were more likely to be strangers in their communities because of their weak ties to the local social structure. In this article, the authors examined critically the evidence offered to support that hypothesis and found it wanting. Further, using data from lynchings in Geo…

Being in Mime
purpose of this essay is, to a degree, a polemical one. It is to situate the question of the nature of literature as formulated by Jacques Derrida within Martin Heidegger's problematically similar readings of poetry. One of the more peculiar aspects of this project is that, despite the gathering momentum of deconstruction, its necessity or even its possibility seem to have passed unnoticed. This disregard is nevertheless contemporary with broad r…

Modern transformations of German Romanticism
Renga
ONE OF THE MOST ADVENTUROUS, peculiar and thought-provoking poetic and theoretical enterprises of modern times has yet to receive its due. In April 1969, four poets gathered in the basement of a hotel in Paris. Then followed a week of collective writing, producing a quadri-lingual work, Renga, inspired by the Japanese renga, or chain-poem. Renga is written in the (Mexican) Spanish of Octavio Paz, the (British) English of Charles Tomlinson, the Fr…
By Heart
Any question of the sort 'what is literature?' or 'what is poetry?' seems as clumsy as it is unavoidable. Inevitably, one finds oneself resisting the question itself and the brutality of the formulae it requires ('poetry is x .. . ' ) . In Derrida's 'Che cos'e la poesia?' the poetic can be engaged only if one also acknowledges the degree to which its distinction is to evade definition and to resist identity. In a sense, the whole text is a perfor…

The Management Guru as Organizational Witchdoctor
This paper suggests that the work of management gurus resembles the performance of a witchdoctor. Central to the work of management gurus is the achievement of transformations of consciousness among their audiences of managers. The view of management gurus offered in this paper has three elements: (1) the key to understanding the power and impact of gurus is to see what they do as a performance; (2) that this performance is of a particular kind-t…

Etude du concept d'inspiration, et des rapports que celle-ci entretient, selon Blanchot, dans une litterature vue comme experience-limite, avec l'exigence, l'oeuvre, le lecteur, et l'ecrivain. L'A. analyse et commente la theorie de l'inspiration de Blanchot en la resituant parmi les traditions deja existantes, et en en developpant le sens et les consequences

Management Research on Fashion
In recentyears there has been growing interest and debate amongst scholars with respectto the notion that management ideas are subject to recurrent swings in fashionin the same way that aesthetic aspects of life, such as clothing styles andmusical tastes, are characterized by surges of popularity and then decline. A numberof reasons for the increasing importance of management fashion as an area ofresearch have been identified. First, each wave of…
Martin Heidegger (Routledge Critical Thinkers)
Since the publication of Being and Time (1927), Martin Heidegger has remained one of the most influential figures in contemporary thought. Until now, however, there has been no clear introduction to his crucial work on art, language and poetry for students of literary and cultural studies. This guidebook provides an ideal entry-point for readers new to Heidegger, touching upon such issues and concepts as: the limits of 'theory', the history of be…

The Fashion of Management Fashion
In recent years there has been growing interest in the notion that management ideas and techniques are subject to swings in fashion in the same way that aesthetic aspects of life such as clothing styles, hair length, music tastes, furniture design, paint colours, and so forth are characterized by surges of popularity and then decline. Adopting a predominantly neo-institutional perspective, researchers have conceived of management fashions as tech…

Within and Beyond Communities of Practice
Situated learning theory offers a radical critique of cognitivist theories of learning, emphasizing the relational aspects of learning within communities of practice in contrast to the individualist assumptions of conventional theories. However, although many researchers have embraced the theoretical strength of situated learning theory, conceptual issues remain undeveloped in the literature. Roberts, for example, argues in this issue that the no…
