Critical Management Education, “The Role of the Reader”, and “New Media Literacy”: Teaching Management Studies as Social Practice

Francesco Crisci

This work investigates an urgent challenge of Management Education (ME) and business schools: “(re)considering the dichotomy between (i) what students learn and academics theorize and (ii) what professionals believe should constitute “useful knowledge” and “relevant skills”. The article aims to: (a) bring out the participatory dimension of learning processes by introducing a practice-based learning approach; (b) analyse this mechanism as a form of “intellectual activism” and “cultural emancipation and responsibility” (Critical Management Education).
