Reviews'Pairing Deleuze and Foucault in distinct ways, this edited book contains insights into the relationship between time and metaphysics, time and politics, and time and organizing, with contributors drawn from right across the social sciences and humanities. Its post-human, material and affective emphases in researching contemporary management and organization are to be profoundly welcomed, especially in opposition to the present cultural wave of self-regarding, human-centred narcissism. For the mirrors in use today always lie time away.' Gibson Burrell, University of Manchester

SynopsisThis volume explores the temporal structures and dynamics at stake in contemporary management and organization in relation to technology, power and politics. The chapters bring together process studies and critical management studies whilst broaching further disciplinary fields such as history, media theory and literature., The bulk of Management and Organization Studies deals with time as organization. Time is performed, organized, enacted, and as such is a locus of power. In this edited book, we stress the importance of organization as time. Time is an organizing force. The happening and becoming of collective activity, its technologies, its images, keep empowering, dominating or (more rarely) emancipating the fragile and ephemeral subjectivities of our world. The turn to digitality in all aspects of contemporary life has made the organizing power of time more pervasive than ever. How to describe organization as time? How to explore the relationship between becoming, duration, images, events, non-events or historicity and their relationships with power and emancipation? These are the rich and varied challenges seized by this book by a team of leading scholars interested in time and temporality in the context of management and organization.
