Course Description

The course Basic Readings in Management deals with an in-depth examination of different approaches in social and economic sciences. Participants work on individual theoretical approaches that are being discussed throughout the course. The focus is on:

Labelling of the approach
Understanding of the underlying science, theory, and methods
Placing the contribution in a broader system of social and economic theories as well as methods
Critically examining the use, impact, and significance of the approach
Identifying overlaps and contradictions with other theoretical approaches
Linking the approach to one's own research or research topics in one's own field

Further information on thematic focus, procedure and grading will be provided at the beginning of the semester. Information about the required literature will be provided during the Kick-Off.
