Management education
Thomas Klikauer
Springer - Berlin
2017
Written in the tradition of the Frankfurt School of critical theory, this book develops a practical theory designed to humanise management education. Inevitably encountering deeply authoritarian business schools, the author sets the rigidity of curriculum against a student-centred approach found in Honneth's concept of recognition and the Habermasian concept of communicative action.
