Abstract

What is the role of management education amid ruination on a planetary scale? Quite significant, given that dominant forms of management learning fuel capitalism’s imperialist tendencies, with disproportionate consequences in the Global South. How, then, may we reflect on our positionality as educators at management institutions in India? We review how contemporary management education is infused with a desire for globally ranked excellence, even as it seeks “Indianness” as a form of recognition on the world stage. We focus on how this ranking fetish leaves academic debris in the form of predatory research practices, mimetic imperialist knowledge, socio-political irrelevance, and academic precarities. We consider the possibilities of being epistemically irreverent and indisciplined .
