Making Projects Critical

By Svetlana Cicmil and Damian Hodgson

This is an edited collection contributed by a range of international scholars linking the area of project management with critical management perspectives. Recent debates have suggested that the problems inherent in project management in practice (cost overruns, delays etc.) reside in the prescriptive, functionalist, and quantitative tradition inherited by project management from the narrow perspective of operations management. Making Projects Critical widens the scope of project management by considering project management within a wider organizational and societal context.
