Industrial Economics and Organization
Digitalisation, globalisation and sustainability have attracted a lot of attention in society as well as in academia. We have reached a point where there is a need for questioning and refining the way we deal with such issues by applying interdisciplinary lenses and unpacking critical concerns.
Research at Industrial Economics and Organization therefore focuses mainly in three research tracks, all critical for future business, management and society:
- Re-framing digitalisation
- Re-framing globalization
- Re-framing sustainability
The research we conduct contributes to develop the way people and resources are coordinated, governed, steered and controlled in organisations, markets and the public sphere, in order to create and capture value.
Re-framing digitalisation
The research track Re-framing digitalisation explores the implications of technological base when it comes to how we manage organisations, how we create value, how we govern.
Re-framing globalization
The research track mainly focuses on the business world, exploring the challenges that organisations have to face in their contemporary international operations.
Re-framing sustainability
The research track foregrounds critical issues to be dealt with in order to work towards sustainability by applying theoretical lenses from different disciplines.
