Understanding the enterprise culture

by Mary Douglas, Shaun Hargreaves Heap, Angus Ross

Cover of Understanding the enterprise culture

The enterprise initiative is probably the most significant political and cultural influence to have affected Western and Eastern Europe in the last decade. In this book, academics from a range of disciplines debate Mary Douglas's distinctive Grid Group cultural theory and examine how it allows us to analyse the complex relation between the culture of enterprise and its institutions. Mary Douglas, Britain's leading cultural anthropologist, contributes several chapters.
