    Traces and shards of self-injury: Strange accounting with “Author X”

    No full text
    In this strange account autoethnography, three or four authors explore their lived experiences with self-injury. Strange accounting is both a post-modern style of text, and a method for keeping identities concealed when risks and secrets are in play. Author X, a post-modern place-keeper for an anonymous author who may or may not have contributed to this manuscript, introduces a new dimension and layer of concealment. With Author X in-play and under erasure, the reader will never be sure if there were three or four authors on this manuscript. Through strange accounting, a post-structuralist/postmodernist frame will be applied to understanding the self-injury experience. We frame self-injury as a social practice and, for some, an everyday norm, while remaining acutely aware of the stigma surrounding the topic of self-injury. Each of us, coupled with Author X, provide the others cover to trace stories of self-injury through the literature, our flesh, and our lives

    The Dynamics of Outsourcing Relationships: Perspectives from Lead Firms and their Key Suppliers

    No full text
    We investigate the dynamics of outsourcing relationships via several longitudinal case studies involving lead firms and their key suppliers. The empirical context, represented by these dyads of lead firms/suppliers belonging to the Italian textile and mechanical industries, illustrates one particular configuration of the global factory model (Buckley & Ghauri, 2004; Buckley & Strange, 2015). Through a process approach and focusing on the outsourcing of manufacturing activities, we track the evolution of outsourcing relationships contributing to address a major research gap in strategic management and international business studies as to the evolution of the global factory. Different types of outsourcing dynamics emerge from our findings depicting alternative approaches in managing the relationship with key suppliers over tim

    Strange Fruit

    No full text
    Strange Fruit is a courageous debut with a remarkable range in theme and tone, from the nostalgic to the comedic to the bawdy, and to the angry, the melancholic and the steadfast and comforting. It will delight, shock, anger, induce laughter, shock more, delight more. And make you blush. It's a full range. There are poems of brutally honest self-scrutiny - the heart of the collection being a series of poems on the ageing body, loss of love and infertility - and there are poems that capture landscapes with imagist skill and the botanist's detail.Front Cover -- Title Page -- Copyright Page -- Acknowledgements -- Contents -- Writer's Block -- Another Country -- To Christina Rossetti -- Evening stables -- Gathering waterblommetjies -- What mountains dream of -- Blessings -- On hearing of the death, by suicide, of an old friend -- Libra rising -- Real magic -- Angel -- We will ght them at La Playa -- Strange fruit -- Mined -- Reply to Ariel -- The Sentinel -- Valediction -- Always -- In praise of younger men -- Amphibian -- Homo erectus -- After sex -- Baby shower -- The ultrasound -- Geology lesson -- The ovary in the arm -- See through -- Battle stations -- At thirty-six -- Postscript -- Vigil -- My daughter -- Envy -- Pushkin -- In Cape Town -- Fade -- Window of opportunity -- Relativity -- The disa that found us -- Cedar and cinnamon -- The flamenco teacher -- Back CoverStrange Fruit is a courageous debut with a remarkable range in theme and tone, from the nostalgic to the comedic to the bawdy, and to the angry, the melancholic and the steadfast and comforting.
