Produktinformationen "Just ›A Machine for Doing Business‹?"
An analysis of the informal practices and strategies surrounding the technology
implementation process.
How is a new intranet involved in an ongoing merger integration process? Katja
Schönian analyses internal communication and branding strategies in connection
with the implementation of a new company intranet. Based on qualitative data,
the study contrasts managerial expectations and everyday usage of the intranet
in distinct work settings. Relying on social practice theories and research in
Science & Technology Studies, Katja Schönian unpacks the different logics the
intranet brings together and, furthermore, interrogates the characteristics that
make an (un)workable technology. The book sheds light on the informal practices
and politics surrounding the technology implementation process. It provides
readers with new insights into the dynamics of a merger integration process, the
production of worker subjectivity, and the increasing involvement of
technologies in contemporary knowledge work.
