Shut Down the Business School by Martin Parker

A clarion call to shut down the business school!
'This is a tour de force of contemporary critical management thinkingAll too often, the textbooks and the MBAs get in the way of what should be the future for business - participative, value-creating and sustainable. Read, learn... and shut down the business school' -- Ed Mayo, Secretary General, Co-operatives UK
'Business schools are at the centre of the malaise of financialized capitalism... Parker prescribes the nuclear option - termination. His replacement is a focus upon sustainable organising that champions alternatives to more-of-the-same hierarchical organisation, market-based forms of exchange and the necessity of management' -- Hugh Wilmott, Professor of Management, Cass Business School, City University London
Martin Parker has taught at business schools since 1995, including at Warwick, Leicester and Keele Universities. He is currently Professor at the Department of Management, University of Bristol. He is the author of Shut Down the Business School (Pluto, 2018) and co-author of Fighting Corporate Abuse (Pluto, 2014).
