Profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This chair is specialized in research about work, human resources, and the organization…<\/summary>\n

Research is rooted in the social sciences, interdisciplinary and internationally oriented. Its output is theoretically and methodically multiparadigmatic embedded in the philosophy of critical management research. Our critical and politically-oriented approach draws attention to organizations with a plurality of interest and hegemonic structures, in which individual and collective actors seek to assert their interests, as well as discourses and discursive practices. From this perspective, „personnel“, human resource strategies, practices and structures are byproducts taking recourse from social structures. Interests and resources of various stakeholders, conflicts and power effects of management practices are just as central categories of analysis, such as the efficiency and effectiveness of practices and concepts of human resource management.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We focus on features of work and working conditions (e.g. emotion work, service work), on human resource policies and practices (e.g. retention of specialists and executives, employment of migrants, age management) and with processes and structures of the organization in their context of social phenomena and institutions (e.g., worker participation, diversity, equality\/equity and inclusion).<\/p>\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n
