Atlas Unplugged: Why It’s Time to Rethink Capitalism - Journal Of Management Studies
For decades, Ayn Rand’s Atlas Shrugged has stood as a manifesto for libertarian capitalism—a system built on rational self-interest, individualism, and the moralization of greed.

Multi‐Temporality and the Ghostly: How Communing with Times Past Informs Organizational Futures
INTRODUCTION The past matters for organizations. The rediscovery of the importance of the past in management research has emerged alongside a growing interest in matters of time, history, and memory.
Research in Management with Purpose
Concepts of the Purposeful Business School: Like corporations, business schools have struggled with their sense of purpose. Critics accuse business schools of lacking engagement with practice (Rynes et al., 2001), promoting bad management theory (Ghoshal, 2005), and failing to cultivate an ethos of professionalism in management (Khurana, 2007).
Entrepreneurial Visions as Rhetorical History: A Diegetic Narrative Model of Stakeholder Enrollment
Roy Suddaby, Trevor Israelsen, J. Robert Mitchell and Dominic S.K. LimPh.D. Abstract Research suggests that entrepreneurs persuade stakeholders to engage in risky projects in an uncertain future through visions, compelling narratives of the future. A unique challenge for entrepreneurs, however, is how entrepreneurs can construct a narrative that unites stakeholders with different perceptions of the degree of risk or uncertainty posed by the future.
How to manage traditions for the continued success of the family business
Traditions are important to family businesses. Founders don’t only pass on ownership to the next generation, they also pass on traditions. Early studies suggest that traditions were an impediment to change because they burdened the family business with history. For instance, traditions can make family businesses risk-averse and less innovative because the preservation of the status quo trumps anything else.

What Are We Explaining? A Review and Agenda on Initiating, Engaging, Performing, and Contextualizing Entrepreneurship
In 2001, Bill Gartner noted that “entrepreneurship espouses a diverse range of theories applied to various kinds of phenomena. There is no theory of entrepreneurship that can account for the diversity of topics that are currently pursued by entrepreneurship scholars” (34). The situation is similar today. Each scholar contributes to the knowledge of entrepreneurship but more so if the pieces of the puzzle come together.
