The aim of the Essex Accounting Centre (EAC) research seminar series is to support our world-class research activities in four key areas; social responsibility and corporate governance; (management) accounting change (in privatised, public and third sectors); global development, corruption and accountability; and reporting, regulation and capital markets. The seminar series is also expected to promote interdisciplinary research that links the work of members of the centre with others both within the university and with external institutions.

Seminar abstract

This presentation explores the hybridisation process of cultural and art activities in a governmental agency connoted by a business mind-set, based on efficiency and standardization logics.

Studies on hybridisation evidenced the need to deepen how far-distant logics are balanced overtime and how their combination is turned into a platform for creativity and innovation when the hybrid survives.

This seminar addresses  this long-term dynamic equilibrium by using the theoretical concept of liminal space and analysing the hybridisation process through a longitudinal single case study.

The concept and dimensions of the liminal space allowed to enhance previous knowledge of hybridisation by pointing out specific strategies of equilibrium constructed around a plastic label, here the mission of “Valorization of Cultural Heritage.

 

Booking

This seminar is free to attend with no need to book in advance.

You can join this seminar online on Wednesday 19 May at 9.30am
