Dominating, Protecting, Creating. A Philosophical Essay about Utopianist Attitudes
2017
La cuestión medioambiental acapara cada día la atención internacional y condiciona en buena medida las fantasías condenatorias de la sociedad actual. Persistentemente se nos anuncian finales del mundo y escenarios apocalípticos brotados de la venganza de la naturaleza, víctima, se cuenta, del progreso irresponsable y devastador del ser humano. En este artículo pretendemos reflexionar filosóficamente en torno a los impactos de la acción humana sobre el mundo físico adoptando como objeto de estudio las actitudes de la utopía ante la naturaleza. Nuestra intención principal es la de sugerir una aproximación utopista a los problemas ecológicos que haga frente, por igual, a las contraindicaciones…

Kontrollin käsite muutoksessa: käskytyksestä kohti asiantuntijaohjausta
2014
Management control is a prerequisite for a coordinated and efficient organization having - as a multilayered conception – utterly ambiguous meanings. Control has no sole, coherent definition and the translation between Finnish and English brings about even more confusion. Alongside industrialization, strict control in organizations was adopted. Later, the advances in education and technology have changed the idea of worker as an organizational actor and mechanistic human conception has fractured. However, the mainstream in management literature still treats control as an essential yet excessive managerialist way: Control is a top-down activity which belongs to the management. In this articl…
