Abstract

The world of organizations is changing in ever more liquid ways: new media generate business innovations, collaborative idea creations, new forms of participation, exploitation and criticism. We explore the contours of these changes and their import for organization analysis by considering the work of Zygmunt Bauman from the perspective of organization studies. We discuss liquid selves, liquid organizations and liquid aesthetics as three facets of a post-canonical Baumanian theory of organization.
