Milano Management Brown Bag Talk | An Anarchist Prehistory of Management

In his recent book chapter on the anarchist prehistory of management, Associate Professor of Management Nidhi Srinivas shows that, historically, anarchist ideas held much in common with early management theory, including a shared sensitivity to the challenges of organizing. Rather than two hermetic monoliths, ‘management’ and ‘anarchism’ were initially promiscuous domains, borrowing ideas from each other and encouraging woolliness in how they defined and distinguished who they were and what they did.
