Markus to co-convene track on extreme context and/or unconventional contexts; Opportunities and challenges for business studies

img_2097Together with professor Malin Tillmar (Linköping university) and Johanna Rein (Uppsala University) Markus co-convened a track at FEKIS (the Swedish association for business studies researchers) that focused on among other things extreme contexts. Opportunities such as frame breaking, increased access, juxtaposition and tweaking of existing theories were discussed. Challenges such as the ethics of becoming immersed in other, what could be, criminal activities (e.g. Sudhir Venkatesh – Gangleader for a day (great book!), language, cultural and social norms were also discussed. The picture is from the debate on business studies and ethics.
