TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore how one might approach the language of new capitalism working in a transdisciplinary way, bringing together new sociology of capitalism (Chiapello) and critical discourse analysis (Fairclough).
Abstract: Our aim in this article is to explore how one might approach the language of new capitalism working in a transdisciplinary way, bringing together new sociology of capitalism (Chiapello) and critical discourse analysis (Fairclough). We focus upon 'new management ideology', and in particular on a recent book by a highly influential management 'guru' (Rosabeth Moss Kanter). The article begins with a discussion of new management ideology based particularly upon the work of Boltanski and Chiapello, followed by an outline of the version of critical discourse analysis we draw upon, and an analysis of a number of extracts from the book. In the conclusion we consider the implications of the analysis for transdisciplinary research

TL;DR: The authors tratan no tanto de proponer soluciones como de comprender las causas del debilitamiento de la critica y de su consecuencia, el fatalismo dominante en la sociedad actual.
Abstract: La evolucion del capitalismo en los ultimos anos ha llevado a un estado de retroceso y desconcierto ideologico que ha generado -y no solo entre las clases menos favorecidas- un aumento del escepticismo respecto del sistema y sus instituciones. Sobre este panorama, los autores de este exhaustivo libro tratan no tanto de proponer soluciones como de comprender las causas del debilitamiento de la critica y de su consecuencia, el fatalismo dominante en la sociedad actual.

TL;DR: The individualisme prend, dans le capitalisme contemporain, un caractere particulier lie a l'importance qu'y revetent les relations en reseau.
Abstract: Resume L’individualisme prend, dans le capitalisme contemporain, un caractere particulier lie a l’importance qu’y revetent les relations en reseau. Il s’exprime par l’exigence de mobilite d’un contact a l’autre, d’un projet a l’autre au sein du reseau. Mais cette mobilite est inegalement accessible aux differents acteurs du monde economique ; elle peut, de plus, etre utilisee dans une visee de bien commun ou, au contraire, de facon strategique et purement egoiste. Une nouvelle forme d’exploitation nait dans ce contexte.
