Tiivistelmä: | This essai debates the extent to which Actor Network Theory (ANT) provides a meaningful contribution to the body of critical theories of organization (henceforth as: t-of-org). It is suggested that ANT relies on a naturalizing ontology, an un-reflexive epistemology and a performative politics. Although ANT is not completely declined as a useful approach to studying organizations, it questions the contribution of ANT to developing a critical t-of-org. |
