  • It’s time for Acting Up

    Open AccessCraig Prichard, Yvonne Benschop et al.ARTICLEOrganization2018

    All ranking journals, including critical ones such as Organization, regard a contribution to theory as the Holy Grail of academic writing. But it is a long way to a better world through theory alone. In this article, we discuss the challenges of making action and activism a feature of academic work and we introduce a new space in Organization, entitled Acting Up, for short papers that take up such a challenge

  • All the lonely papers, where do they all belong

    Open AccessCraig PrichardARTICLEOrganization2013

    Organization has published 569 papers in its 20 years. Of these 44% have been cited less than four times, and just on 9%, or 48 papers, have never been cited at all—not even by their own authors. What might we make of these lonely and seemingly neglected papers? Are they the Eleanor Rigbys and the Father McKenzies of the academic world? As a contribution to the Journal’s 20th Anniversary issue this paper offers a discussion of Organization’s unci…

  • Responding to Class Theft

    Open AccessCraig PrichardARTICLERethinking Marxism2007Cited by: 1References: 6

    This paper suggests closer linkages between the fields of Postmodern Class Analysis (PCA) and Critical Management Studies (CMS)2 are possible. It argues that CMS might contribute to the empirical engagement with the over-determined relations between class and non-class processes in work organizations (this appears to have received relatively little attention in PCA) and that PCA's theoretical and conceptual commitments may provide one means for C…

    Craig PrichardARTICLECulture and Organization2005References: 2

    This paper brings to light forms of interpretive closure embedded in a Government inquiry into rail industry occupational safety and heath. The paper shows how particular interpretive moves by the Inquiry had the effect of obscuring a critical analysis of economic and political relations. The analysis uses publicly available documentary data and is undertaken using interpretive and political economic forms of analysis in a multiple framework appr…

  • Wo-managing Further Education; gender and the construction of the manager in the corporate colleges of England

    Craig Prichard, Rosemary DeemARTICLEGender and Education1999Cited by: 16References: 12

    This article suggests that alongside the seeming remasculinisation of UK further education management reported recently in Gender and Education, there is also a little-reported but prevalent feminisation of lower level managerial positions across this sector. To support this assertion the article draws on empirical work done by the Further Education Development Agency, and two interview-based studies of woman and men college 'managers'. Conceptua…

  • Just How Managed is the McUniversity? Craig Prichard, Hugh Willmott

    Open AccessCraig Prichard, Hugh WillmottARTICLEOrganization Studies1997Cited by: 50References: 2

    This paper seeks to illuminate ways in which the introduction and use of man agement knowledges and practices in U.K. universities overlaps, intersects and confronts established knowledge and practice in these sites. While broadly supportive of the general directionality of work in this field by other authors (Parker and Jary 1995; Winter 1995; Miller 1995) who argue that U.K. univer sities are becoming increasingly corporately managed around a '…
