I begin by locating it in the context of the expanding business schools of the UK in the 1990s, and the growth of CMS in north western Europe. After positioning the book within its time, and noting that the book is now simultaneously highly cited and irrelevant, I then explore the arguments I made in the final chapter. If the book is of interest for the next two decades, it because it gestures towards the importance of alternative forms of organization, which I continue to maintain are not reducible to ‘management’. Given the intensifying crises of climate, ecology, inequality and democracy, developing alternatives must be understood as the historical task of CMS within the business school and I propose a ten-point manifesto in support of that commitment. – Reproduced Alternative organization, Business school, Critical management studies, history, Manifesto. 38068 Organization MANAGEMENT AR 0 0 ddc 0 0 397648 IIPA IIPA 2023-05-01 30(2), Mar, 2023: p.407-415 AR128732 2023-05-01 AR
