By drawing on a simultaneously historical, heuristic, epistemological, and methodological reading of the dominant work and system on this subject, which he refers to as “Porterism”, the author presents a resolutely critical review of the full range theories of managerial “strategy” as well as those of the most notable author in the field, namely, Michael Porter. |
