Hans Hansen offers readers a powerful model for creating significant organizational, social, and institutional change. He unpacks the lessons of the fight to change capital punishment in Texas, revealing how narratives shape our everyday lives and how we can construct new narratives to enact positive change.
Barry and Hansen have assembled a diverse group of contributors to explore the future of management and organization. This Handbook provides insightful and proactive perspectives that challenge our assumptions about organizations, encouraging us to broaden our thinking and inquiry. It is essential for anyone interested in understanding our interactions with organizations. A decade ago, critical theory and postmodernism were seen as emerging theories in Business and Management. What will be the next significant theories to influence the field? In this volume, Barry and Hansen present new chapters that keep readers informed about the latest developments. Contributors introduce ideas that may currently be viewed as fringe or controversial but could become pivotal theoretical contributions in the future. Each chapter contextualizes these ideas historically, outlines the key theoretical positions of each approach, and highlights how they differ from mainstream concepts. Throughout, contributors reference existing studies to illustrate how these evolving themes will impact the Business and Management landscape. This Handbook is a valuable resource for researchers, educators, and advanced students interested in the future of scholarship in Business and Management.

Zafir, ein besonderes Pferd: Anna ist zwölf Jahre alt und reitet fast so gut wie Lena, ihre ältere, talentierte Schwester, die bei einem Reitunfall mit Zafir ums Leben kam. Zafir ist ein schwarzes Rassepferd, das seit diesem tragischen Tag verstört ist. So steht er seither nutzlos in der kleinen Reitschule, wo sich Anna täglich aufhält. Auch Anna schafft es nicht Kontakt mit ihm zu bekommen, obwohl sie an ihn glaubt. Der aus dem Kinderheim geflüchtete fremdländische Junge namens Sharbat, der die Fähigkeiten eines Pferdeflüsterers besitzt, schafft mit dem Hengst wieder eine Vertrauensbasis und lehrt Anna Zafir zu reiten. Schliesslich nimmt sie ohne die Erlaubnis einzuholen am Rennen teil... Zur Haupthandlung, die eine spannende Pferdegeschichte ist, bekommen auch Annas Umgang mit dem Tod ihrer Schwester und die Situation eines Flüchtlingskindes Raum. Ab 10 Jahren, gut, Denise Racine.
