Overview

This essay explores epistemological obstacles in organizational studies, highlighting insights from Bachelard's theories.

Key Points

  • Epistemological obstacles limit depth in organizational studies, leading to superficial analyses and broad concepts.
  • The essay categorizes obstacles into three analysis types, emphasizing the impacts of empiricism and idealism on knowledge production.
  • An examination of these obstacles reveals the growing trend of prioritizing methodological rigor over meaningful content.
  • The reflection points out the risks of focusing on immediate phenomena at the expense of critical scientific understanding.
