Description

Drawing on extended ethnographic studies of management consultancies in the Oslo region of Norway, this book seeks to find a richer understanding of their role in contemporary work life and the attraction their practices exert on people. The author shows that management consultancy is an arena of meaning that should be analysed as a ‘cultural space’. With a detailed investigation into consultancy as a cultural phenomenon, Henningsen argues that  its services can be viewed as a ‘micro-utopian’ vision which can lead to  a happier working environment for individuals.

Author Biography:

Erik Henningsen is Research director at the Department of Welfare, Democracy and Governance at the Norwegian Institute for Urban and Regional Research, Oslo Metropolitan University. He has carried out research on topics related to cultural policy, social work, international development aid and social movements.
