  • More about Media and Management


This book explores how media devices, such as stopwatches, punch cards, calculators, and cameras, have enabled management practices and how management theories are taught through printed and virtual textbooks and online platforms. It examines how management innovations are learned through media and how media formats produce new opportunities for management. The book also offers a provocative insight on the future of labor and media that crosses geographical boundaries.

The management practices that govern factory labor have a profound impact on the media devices we use today. This book makes the case that management is enabled by media forms, just as media gives life to management. Media technologies that are central to management have included the stopwatch, punch card, calculator, and camera, while management theories are taught in printed and virtual textbooks and online through TED talks.

Throughout the evolving relationship between workers and employers, management innovations are learned through media, with media formats producing fresh opportunities for management.

Drawing on rich historical and ethnographic case studies, this book approaches key instances of the industrial and service economy, such as the legacy of Toyotism in the software industry, labor mediators in electronics manufacturing in Central and Eastern Europe, and app-based food-delivery platforms in China, to push media and management studies in new directions.

Media and Management offers a provocative insight on the future of labor and media that inevitably cross geographical boundaries.
