This emergent culturalist perspective continued into the 1970s with a flurry of interest in the impact of culture on management behaviour (see for instance, Barrett & Bass, 1976; Davis, 1971; Goodman & Moore, 1972; Graham & Roberts, 1972; Graves, 1973; Harris & Moran, 1979; Kraut, 1975; Miller & Simonetti, 1974; Pazam & Reichel, 1977; Roberts, 1970; Schollhammer, 1969, 1975; Smith & Thomas, 1972; Terpstra, 1978; Weinshall, 1977). , 1974; Whitely & England, 1977, 1980). There was also an interesting attempt to tie social and economic development to culture and to national differences in motivation mechanisms through the work associated with McClelland, exemplified best perhaps in his books The Achieving Society and Motivating Economic Achievement (McClelland, 1961 and 1969 respectively).
A key challenge for our analysis is to consider how we might account for these ‘stretches’, and the history and wider structures of domination that find expression in institutional life (in our case, in the institutional life of the management academy). That is to say, our interest also lies in the role of various actors such as journal rankings, editors, academic conferences, leading business schools, leading names, editorial policies and so on, in shaping and reproducing a normative framework for the conduct of ‘good’ research and teaching in ICCM.
The success of Said’s work resides in its systematic and complex unravelling of the way in which Western scholars (historians, geographers, anthropologists, linguists, philologists) and others (travel writers, artists, curators, administrators) constructed knowledge of the ‘Orient’ (referring to the Middle East and North Africa, rather than Japan as many might think) (Gandhi, 1998; Moore-Gilbert, 1997). Said explored the sets of representations (categories, classifications, images) utilized by these scholars and commentators in producing accounts of the Oriental ‘other’.
