The unsettling potential of Indigenous organizing

Abstract

Despite its long-standing interest in alternative economies and decolonization, Organization’s pages have seen little attention to Indigenous organizing. The journal’s 30th anniversary is the occasion to call for a remedy for this deficit. This piece outlines the trajectory, future research, and possibilities of learning from Indigenous organizing, and calls for contributions that bring together Organization’s established interest in alternative economies and decolonization with a consideration of Indigenous organizing especially as that is embodied in Indigenous entrepreneurship. Paying attention to the features of Indigenous agency in enterprising, broadly conceived, would enlarge understanding of that vital but neglected topic and contribute to the unsettling of orthodox assumptions about management and organization that Organization takes pride in.
