Rezensionen

"Management scholars and students can learn a great deal about the origins, evolution, social context, contradictions, and deficits of management ideas from [this book].David Jacobs, Management Learning

"Value has long remained absent or at best marginal in critically-oriented organization studies. In this timely book, Frederick Harry Pitts argues that we cannot avoid addressing this notion to confront the current multiple crises of capitalism. He then guides us into recovering Marx's critique of political economy to grasp how objects, people and relations acquire worth (or not) under capitalism. This exciting journey into valorisation, class composition, metabolic rift, and social reproduction sets up a renewed intellectual and political agenda that no organizational scholar committed to struggles for change should miss."
