Ideology can bond a community of individuals around common assumptions and beliefs. Ideology can also distort by leading adherents away from a rational understanding of their world. Studies of the development and history of management theory and practice regularly analyse contextual influences; most typically, economic and technological forces. Prevailing political ideology, and the degree to which that ideology impacts management thought and action, also needs to be understood to appreciate and evaluate the evolution of management thought.The Cold War years present an especially rich opportunity to explore the interplay between management theory and political ideology.
