Summary
"Organization and Identity provides an exploration of identity as a contemporary concern in everyday life and as a key concept in the social sciences, particularly focusing on how ideas about identity can be applied to organization and management studies. The contributors to this volume use and develop recent philosophical thought on the nature of identity to ask questions about the key social divisions of gender, class and nation, such as whether we are able to write our own identity stories or if we remain bound by social constraints and inequalities."--Jacket.
