Description
How has the post-lockdown world transformed critical scholarship and intensified anti-racist activism and decolonial practice? This collection of essays explores the challenges of sustaining critical scholarship in the business school across economic crises, the rise of neo-fascism and environmental destruction.
Through intimate explorations of racism, misogyny and fatigue, these essays validate care as political action and seek new methods for decolonizing academic practice, exploring the boundaries of what this means for scholarly engagement. It is a compelling examination of theory and action, which asks how anti-racist activism is opening possibilities for future critical scholarship and social change in the business school.

Reviews / Votes
"This book is essential reading for anyone troubled by the perplexing continuation of human trafficking and modern slavery in contemporary times. Its orthodoxy-disrupting orientation, together with reflections on prevailing power, racism and colonialism within this arena, allow insightful commentary on how activism and research can more meaningfully influence anti-trafficking and anti-slavery policy."
