Research interests
Miriam’s research interests centre on representations
of theory in texts such as textbooks and research papers. She is focussing
on a particular text in the organisation/management literature – Burns
T & Stalker GM (1961, 1966) The Management of Innovation. The research
includes textual / discourse analysis of this text in relation to representations
of it; and also the way scholars have learned of, understood and used the
text in their research and teaching. She is now doing doctoral research based
on this research and the issues arising from it.
