Beskrivning

This book challenges the widely-held belief that popular narratives about business are invariably critical. It develops a more nuanced analytic model of private sector narrative and applies it to 63 recent narrative texts (movies, histories, biographies) produced in the US dealing with three major industries: information technology, automobile manufacturing, and financial trading. It identifies recurring patterns to compare sectors and to analyze their implications. Negotiating Business Narratives appeals to academics and practitioners interested in business and society, strategic management, and contemporary literature and films about business.

Recensioner i media

“My read of this short text (78 pages) is that the authors have most certainly been successful on the first front and have taken the field another valuable step toward the second. … this book has much to recommend. Analyzing popular culture narratives, this research effectively describes the narratives of three business industries. It does this quite well.” (Michael D. Jones, Journal of Public Administration Research and Theory, December, 10, 2018)
