Hardcover. Condition: Good. First Edition. Explore the intricate dynamics of corporate power and resistance with this important First Edition of 'Contesting the Corporation' by Peter Fleming and André Spicer, published in 2007 by Cambridge University Press. In an age when large corporations dominate the economic and political landscape, it is tempting to think that their power goes largely unchecked. This foundational work counters that view by showing that today's corporations are driven by political struggle, power plays and attempts to resist control. Building on a wide range of theoretical sources, Fleming and Spicer present a nuanced analysis of the different ways in which power operates within the modern workplace. They establish a theoretical perspective that synthesizes previous investigations of power and resistance, identifying struggle as a key concept. Each chapter richly illustrates a different dimension of workplace struggle through an array of original empirical studies, covering diverse topics such as sexuality, cynicism, new social movements, and new-wave trade unionism. The book concludes by demonstrating that social justice claims underlie even the most innocuous forms of resistance, highlighting their potential to transform even the largest modern corporations.
