WHAT IS THE COLLECTIVE?

An Intellectual Community, Not an Organization

The Management & Social Justice Collective is a global community of scholars, educators, and practitioners committed to examining how management systems shape inequality and how institutions can be reimagined to support justice and collective flourishing.

The Collective is not a formal association or membership body. It is a space for dialogue, inquiry, and collaboration grounded in shared commitments to reflexivity, accountability, and structural change.

WHY THIS COLLECTIVE EXISTS

Management scholarship shapes how institutions operate. Yet discussions of justice, power, and inequality are often marginalized within mainstream management discourse.

The Collective was formed to:

• Create space for critical conversations about management and inequality
• Support interdisciplinary research collaborations
• Advance pedagogies that center ethics and responsibility
• Encourage scholarship that engages real-world institutional challenges

• Scholars across management, sociology, public policy, and related fields
