CFP: 19th Philosophy of Management Conference

We welcome paper and panel submissions that explore the diverse facets of management in private or public organizations through a philosophical lens. Whether it’s applied ethics, social, moral, and political philosophy, ontology, epistemology, axiology, or aesthetics, we encourage scholars to propose novel, critical, timely, and/or controversial arguments. Submissions can also adopt a ‘meta-’ standpoint for raising and answering questions such as: What is philosophy of management? Is philosophy useful for managers?

The conference brings together philosophers, management scholars, social scientists, and practitioners interested in deepening the dialogue between philosophy and management practice. We invite contributions that challenge prevailing assumptions, interrogate contemporary practices, or open new directions for thinking about management as a human, social, and institutional endeavor.

Four specialized tracks are offered in addition to the General Track:

1. Politicization of Business
2. Popper and the Philosophy of Management: The Logic of Situated Action  
3. A Post-Humanist Philosophy of Management 
4. Emotions in Organizations: Philosophical Perspectives on Management and Organizing
