The Role of Human Values in the Relationship Between Industry 4.0 and Job Insecurity in an Emerging Economy
This study analyses the relationship between Industry 4.0, human values and job insecurity in Colombia against significant technological changes and global economic challenges. It aims to understand how human values mediate the relationship between Industry 4.0's technological advances and the perception of job security in the current era of economic and social uncertainty. Utilising a Likert scale, the study gathered 714 survey responses from em…
Perceptions of Reincorporation
No Latin American country is as associated with violence in the global imagination as Colombia. The objective of this research is to contribute to the study of the perceptions and attitudes of individuals who are not part of illegal armed groups towards Colombians from the ranks of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) undergoing the process of reincorporation by estimating the degree of positive or negative implicit association, as w…
Aristotelian versus Platonic and Machiavellian interpretations of phronesis
Given the high incidence of corporate scandals, we are faced with reconsidering management theory, principles and education. The purpose of this paper is threefold. First, we seek to show that it is necessary and possible to analyse current managerial and directive action in the light of Aristotle's ethical thought, specifically concerning phronesis (practical wisdom). The second aim is to highlight that the Platonic interpretation of phronesis a…
Habitual Leadership Ethics
This paper is about the relationship between leadership, organisational morals, and temporality. We argue that engaging with questions of time and temporality may help us overcome the overly agentic view of organisational morals and leadership ethics that dominates extant literature. Our analysis of the role of time in organizational morals and leadership ethics starts from a virtue-based approach to leading large-scale moral endeavours. We ask: …
A critical organizational history of city margins in the Global South
Purpose The city of Fortaleza, capital of the state of Ceará in the north-east of Brazil, presents a paradox as a present-day tourist destination, while also marked by features and processes characteristic of cities in the Global South, such as high levels of social inequality with fragmented urban margins and vulnerabilities. This research problematizes the idea of “historical ruins” proposed by Walter Benjamin as a viable way to understand how …
Russia in Latin America
Russia has been a powerful ally in Venezuela's complex crisis, having developed political, economic and cultural relations with the Venezuelan state by employing various foreign policy instruments such as mutual support in multilateral fora, foreign aid, loans, commodity trading, military support and cultural diplomacy. What explains this support, despite Venezuela's severe political and economic crisis? Different perspectives have contributed to…
Business and Human Rights in Latin America
In his landmark 1967 novel One Hundred Years of Solitude , Gabriel García Márquez wrote about the ‘Banana Massacre’, where plantation workers that had been striking against the United Fruit Company to improve their working conditions were killed by the military. Despite being an event depicted in a magic realism novel, this example also shows some of the characteristics of Latin America, where colonialism, the close relationship between business …
Associativity in the Bogotá metropolitan region
The Bogotá Metropolitan Region represents a paradox as it is yet to establish a metropolitan entity. The official discourse on the integration of Colombia’s capital city, Bogotá Capital District, with its surrounding municipalities is at odds with the reality of uncoordinated governance. This research addresses the local and provincial roles of public and private associations in peripheral municipalities, identifying a profound geographical diffe…

Memory and Trauma
The Colombian government signed a revised version of the Havana Peace Deal with the country's main guerrilla group, Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC), in November 2016, giving rise to a set of new opportunities and challenges for the South American nation. Societies that make the transition from conflict to peace need to seek truth, justice, and reparation concerning massive and systematic violations. Thus truth, history, and historic…
Frontier development policy and local governance in South America
This paper studies the dynamics of horizontal and vertical coordination arising from a set of sectoral and intersectoral projects in the border areas of Colombia–Venezuela and Brazil–Argentina. These are characterized by some common features such as population density, conurbation and trade patterns that in the absence of border regulation policies strengthen border security and development guidelines and extend local leadership. Officials and di…

Con tal finalidad, se hace una revisión delmecanismo tanto desde una perspectiva política como desde los principales enfoq…
Knowledge Workers and Virtues in Peter Drucker's Management Theory
The fallout of the 2008 global financial crisis and frequent disregard for labor, environmental, and social standards have instilled new vigor into the study of ethics and virtues. In the contemporary knowledge society, the issue of which virtues the modern day workforce needs to possess is of crucial significance. This study specifies the virtues laid out in the management theory of Peter Drucker (1909-2005), focusing upon the conceptual categor…
A Socio-Legal Exploration of the Linkages between Informal Employment, Social Protection and Labour Law in Latin America
For decades Latin American societies and policy-makers have attempted to confront the social, political and economic challenges brought about by high levels of informal employment and entrepreneurial activity. Social exclusion, low rates of political participation, dysfunctional social protection schemes and mistrust of the law are some of the social phenomena that are inextricably linked to informality. This research article takes a socio-legal …
