Organization 2666 by Christian De Cock, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Climate Chaos; Trump; Brexit; Terror: the apocalypse looms large in the Zeitgeist. Could and should this not provide the fulcrum for renewing the imaginative range of organization studies? In this edited volume, we bring together scholars who have taken Roberto Bolaño's novel 2666 as a starting point for reflections on, provocations of, and challenges to established imaginaries. How may we refer our attention to - and emphatically not succumb to the temptation to deter from - the violent organizing of the world? This is the challenge the contributors to this edited volume take on as they seek to break through the various blind spots in our vision and inquire into those alternative spaces and associations that Bolaño's work opens up for new and bold organizational thinking; spaces and associations that may be variously disturbing, self-destructive, and abyssal and which make us struggle against, as Bolaño once wrote, "that something that terrifies us all, that something that cows and spurs us on". We call this something Organization 2666. | Organization 2666 by Christian De Cock, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
