Abstract

El artículo busca hacer una introducción al trabajo de una de las escuelas de pensamiento más importantes de las ciencias de gestión contemporáneas, los Critical Management Studies (CMS) o Estudios Críticos en Gestión, corriente surgida inicialmente en Europa pero que cuenta con cada vez más practicantes alrededor del mundo y cuyos aportes teóricos y metodológicos pueden contribuir al desarrollo de la disciplina administrativa en nuestro contexto, dando pistas para el estudio crítico y reflexivo de la realidad organizacional colombiana. El artículo inicia con una reflexión sobre el estado actual de la literatura crítica en administración en Colombia. A continuación se examinan las condiciones de surgimiento de los CMS y los principales medios de divulgación de sus trabajos. Luego se hace unaexposición de los elementos que distinguen dicha corriente de otras posturas críticas sobre el management, identificando conceptos y autores relevantes. Por último, se presenta uno de los principales objetos de trabajo de los CMS: la reflexión sobre el problema de laemancipación.
