No full text“Know Where to Fish”: Class and Gender Precarity and Project-based Networks in Creative and Cultural Industries
No full textThis chapter considers creative industry networks as mediating precarious outcomes for aspirant workers through informal, individualised cultural processes. In particular, we contend that understanding how and why networks organise project-based transactions can be achieved through a synthesis of material and non-material lenses. First, we illustrate that the project work dynamics accounting for how creative capacity is commodified in the marketplace involve the industrial logic of risk minimisation and the national regulatory contexts in which they are embedded. Second, in investigating how these dynamics affect project workers, we show the homophilous processes that generate inclusion and exclusion, through classed, gendered ‘sorting.’ In so doing, we can identify the conditions under which certain outcomes occur and contribute to organisation studies’ theorising about project work, and specifically its facilitation of a precarity which is class-based and gendered. We ground our argument within an empirical comparative cross-national study of precarious jobs within CCIs, and use a narrative ‘storytelling’ approach as a heuristic tool for the analysis of precarity which makes it possible to uncover broader tendencies in the rearticulation of class experiences in relation to race and gender

Advancing the common good through business excellence awards: A legitimacy-seeking perspective
No full textCompeting for and winning business excellence awards (BEAs) is essential for firms' long-term performance. However, the role of these BEAs in inspiring good and generating sustainable business practices has often been overlooked. In this article, we draw on the legitimacy-seeking theory to explore the “socially good” transformations firms go through by competing for BEAs. Data for the inquiry come from semi-structured interviews with managers whose firms competed in two BEAs in the United Kingdom. Providing insight into BEAs as a competitive legitimating frame in organizing, our findings shed light on how BEAs may serve as competitive crucibles that provide opportunities for feedback and learning, potentiality for brand positioning, and a possibility for stimulating excellence in the adoption of good business practices. The implications of these findings for the theory and practice of advancing the “common good” are outlined
The Construction, Sources, and Implications of Consensualism in Contract
No full textThis book offers a comprehensive introduction to French contract law with a focus on the role of consent and the evolution of consensualism, considering its immediate historical sources. The book provides a clear, in-depth, and analytical discussion of the contingency of consensualism and how the development of consensual ideas across time and transnational geographical settings has specifically underpinned modern French contract law, which has inspired other legal systems and continues to do so. It also challenges the macro-narratives of European legal history and redefines consensualism so that it may be properly understood, addressing its manifest contemporary misinterpretations. Thorough, engaging, well-structured and inventive, there is no other English-language scholarly work that offers a similar analysis
