Reviews

This is an exciting and innovative collection, opening up new avenues of research and demonstrating the continuing value of Lefevbre's work for the study of organisations and everyday organisational life. This book takes us from vintage marketplaces to refugee settlements, finding innovative insights and interesting ways to challenge our preconceived notions of social space and organisations. -Oliver Mallett, Newcastle University, UK Organizational Space and Beyond represents a real service to our community. The editors have been motivated by a contagious enthusiasm with a theorist whose ideas deserve far wider recognition and appreciation. This is a text Lefebvre would want to see. -Kevin Morrell, University of Warwick, UK
