1 Palmer, Donald (ed)
Organizational wrongdoing : key perspectives and new
directions / Donald Palmer, Kristin Smith-Crowe and
Royston Greenwood.-- Cambridge: Cambridge University
Press, 2019.
xxvi, 519p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9781107541658.
302.35 PAL 147352
This book is an essential companion to understanding the
causes, processes and consequences of misconduct at
work.These affairs likely received extensive media
attention partly because new forms of media (most
importantly, forms of media made possible by the
expansion of the Internet) were emerging that facilitated
the dissemination and amplification of news about
misconduct. Regardless, the attention these episodes
received contributed to the perception that
organizational misconduct is increasing in frequency,
scale, and complexity, suggesting systemic causes and
precipitating catastrophic consequences.

this book offers a wide variety of perspectives in an
area where there is still not yet an extensive body of
research.

xi, 207p. , 24cm.
ISBN : 9781784717049.
658.45 BER 147357
This book offers a succinct but comprehensive
introduction to the vast field of organizational
discourse analysis, the approach that studies
organization as a linguistic phenomenon, and offers an
original approach to investigate the relationship between
materiality and discourse. Three original images of
discourse are employed: discourse as a map, discourse as
organizing and discourse as a mask.The book critically
compares and contrasts various linguistic-focused
approaches to the study of organizations, and proposes
the use of linguistic phenomena in connection with other
methodologies.
