"The bulk of Management and Organization Studies deals with time as organization. Time is performed, organized, enacted, and as such is a locus of power. In this edited book, we stress the importance of organization as time. Time is an organizing force. The happening and becoming of collective activity, its technologies, its images, keep empowering, dominating or (more rarely) emancipating the fragile and ephemeral subjectivities of our world. The turn to digitality in all aspects of contemporary life has made the organizing power of time more pervasive than ever. How to describe organization as time? How to explore the relationship between becoming, duration, images, events, non-events or historicity and their relationships with power and emancipation? These are the rich and varied challenges seized by this book by a team of leading scholars interested in time and temporality in the context of management and organization"--

'Pairing Deleuze and Foucault in distinct ways, this edited book contains insights into the relationship between time and metaphysics, time and politics, and time and organizing, with contributors drawn from right across the social sciences and humanities. Its post-human, material and affective emphases in researching contemporary management and organization are to be profoundly welcomed, especially in opposition to the present cultural wave of self-regarding, human-centred narcissism. For the mirrors in use today always lie time away.' Gibson Burrell, University of Manchester

Franēois-Xavier de Vaujany is Professor of Organization Studies at Université Paris Dauphine-PSL (DRM). His research deals with the relationship between new ways of organizing work and societal transformations, particularly its time and space dimensions. His latest publications are Apocalypse managériale (Belles Lettres, 2022) and the co-edited Oxford Handbook of Phenomenologies and Organization Studies (Oxford University Press, 2022). Robin Holt is Professor of Strategy and Aesthetics at the University of Bristol Business School and a visiting professor at Copenhagen Business School. He studies the nature of organizational form, with a specific interest in the aesthetic process of its creation (entrepreneurship) and shaping (strategy). Robin works at the intersection of management and organization studies, media theory, politics and philosophy. Albane Grandazzi has been Assistant Professor at Grenoble École de Management (GEM) since 2020. Her research is based on an ethnographic and critical approach to organization and management studies. She is interested in the role of the body in new work practices, building on the work of the philosopher Merleau-Ponty to this end. Her last publication, The Oxford Handbook of Phenomenologies and Organization Studies (Oxford University Press, 2022) is related to the role of gestures in this process.
