Hi all,
a bit belated after a trip to Oslo and back, barely avoiding snow
storms in Frankfurt.
Chapter 10 of our book
Roth, W.-M., Hwang, S., Lee, Y-J., & Goulart, M. (2005).
Participation, learning, and identity: Dialectical perspectives.
Berlin: Lehmanns Media.
explicitly deals with the relation of the individual | collective
dialectic in organizations. Good work has been done by Emmanuel
Levinas, from a dialectical perspective.
Also, research is not about "applying" concepts but working out
concepts that are relevant in and to praxis.
Cheers,
Michael
