What is teamworking? How can organisations enjoy the benefits claimed for it? What does teamworking imply for employees? Against the background of an enormous resurgence of interest in teamworking, this book provides neither simplistic prescriptions nor knee-jerk condemnation of the idea. It explores in great depth the issues raised by teamworking, how teamworking can be managed and how it is experienced by employees.Teamworking will become the essential starting point for anyone interested in contemporary debates concerning organisations and work, whether on postgraduate, post-experience, undergraduate or professional courses, or practitioners.

This book demonstrates the importance of understanding how political rhetoric, financial reporting and media coverage of austerity in transnational contexts is significant to the communicative, social and economic environments in which we live. It considers how aspects of moral storytelling, language, representation and ideology operate through societies in financial crisis and through governments that impose austerity programmes on public spending. Whilst many of the debates covered here are concerned with UK economic policy and British social contexts, the contributions also consider examples from other countries that reflect similar concerns on the ideological operations of austerity and financial discourse. The multiple discursive contexts of austerity demonstrate the breadth of social concerns and conflicts that have developed in societies and institutions following the global economic crisis of 2008. Through its interdisciplinary focus on this topic, this book provides an important contribution across multiple subject areas, with shared interests in critical and analytical approaches to discourse, power and language in social contexts reflecting the healthy collaborative scope of critical discourse studies as a field of research. This book was originally published as a special issue of Critical Discourse Studies.
