“…Em reconhecimento, no ano de 2014, foi realizado o Seminário Internacional Guerreiro Ramos: O legado de uma dupla cidadania acadêmica, no Rio de Janeiro, quando, tanto a produção com vínculos brasileiros foram enaltecidos, como as parcerias que estabeleceu no período em que esteve nos Estados Unidos de 1966de até sua morte, em 1982de (CAVALCANTI, 2015. No âmbito internacional, sua obra também ressoa, a exemplo do simpósio denominado The Destiny of Theory: Beyond The New Science of Organizations, em 2006, cuja introdução foi dedicada a esse autor VENTRISS, 2006;SALM, 2010).…”

Resumo Sendo a razão um conceito elementar das ciências das organizações, este ensaio teórico tem como objetivo analisar a racionalidade substantiva (RAMOS, 1989) e a racionalidade cosmopolita (SANTOS, 2002; 2007a; 2007b) a fim de derivar argumentos a favor de uma racionalidade substantiva cosmopolita. A distinção, a confrontação e a ampliação da razão substantiva, em relação a razão instrumental, dá ensejo para sustentar para que a razão substantiva, sendo também cosmopolita, enseje propostas teóricas alternativas à Ciência Social. Os dois modelos de razão, ainda, convergem na ideia pragmática das consequências de seu exercício e tem como essência interações simbólicas. A razão substantiva cosmopolita se constituiria numa concepção que agrega a restauração de uma vida de base ética e política e, ainda, erigida no reconhecimento do homem plural e multidimensional, e na tradução como elemento a ser mediado nas interações sociais. Considera a ecologia de saberes como diretriz no desenho dos cenários sociais multidimensionais.

“…During that time he published at least six articles and one book in English, The New Science of Organizations (1981) (published in Portuguese in 1989), which he saw as the major statement of his ideas. While this book has received extensive commentary from Brazilian and American scholars, his articles have been largely ignored (with the exception of Soares, 1995, p. 45-47;Salm, 2010). The lack of discussion of his articles is understandable since it seems to have been assumed that they were efforts to develop ideas later incorporated into his book.…”

“…They agree that he shook up Public Administration scholars at USC, as he had in Brazil, by urging more robust theorizing as well as critical distance. But they have also noted that in the U.S. at least, the success of this approach to a very pragmatic and utilitarian field has been strongest within USC, and limited beyond it Salm, 2010), and that outside of his former USC students and colleagues, he has had little impact on American Public Administration theory, practice, and teaching Candler, 2005;Cavalcanti et al, 2014).…”

http://dx.doi.org/10.5007/2175-8034.2016v18n1p231Muito negligenciados, na recente e extensa literatura sobre Guerreiro Ramos, são os artigos que ele publicou em inglês durante seu exílio nos Estados Unidos. Argumenta-se aqui que esses artigos demonstram sua impressionante habilidade de se adaptar a possibilidades intelectuais mutantes. Nesses artigos, ele trocou o foco erudito sobre o Brasil e a América Latina por um engajamento total com a literatura americana de sociologia e, especialmente, com a de Administração Pública, ao mesmo tempo em que mantinha seu papel como um crítico criativo. Esses artigos, muitos dos quais tinham sido antecipados em seus escritos brasileiros, foram incorporados em seu livro, The New Science of Organizations (A Nova Ciência das Organizações). Com a anistia de 1978, ele retornou ao Brasil e às questões brasileiras, por isso voltou a publicar em português. Seu impacto nos Estados Unidos e fora da University of Southern California parece limitado enquanto seu redescobrimento no Brasil tornou-se dramático. Sugerem-se as possíveis razões disso.

Challenging Anglo-Saxon Dominance in Management and Organizational Knowledge

FORUM Invited Article CHALLENGING ANGLO-SAXON DOMINANCE IN MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATIONAL KNOWLEDGEThe international scene of management and organizational knowledge (MOK) is dominated by concepts, models and theories originated in the Anglo-Saxon World. Such hegemony in the field can be understood as a form of epistemic colonialism, sustained and reproduced by power relations within the academic world (Ibarra-Colado, 2006). It is, then, pertinent to question the desirability of this state of affairs, especially in a scenario of international crisis that is challenging the long established Western global prevalence. The fact of Anglo-Saxon hegemony in MOK is not new, its consequences are clear: the exclusion or subalternization of alternative perspectives originated in other national contexts. It is hard to talk of true "international" context in the discipline if there is a continuing process of hegemony construction that blocks, or at least hinders, the participation of scholars working in non-Anglo-Saxon countries (Alcadipani & Reis Rosa, 2011). The goal of this special forum is to explore whether, and how, this hegemony can be effectively challenged.To gain attention in "international" academia, it is essential to be heard in the Englishspeaking world. Paradoxically, even those who opposed Anglo-Saxon hegemony, or more broadly the hegemony of Western thought, such as the postcolonial theorists, publish their works in English to make them known to a wider audience. An interesting example in this regard is that of the Argentine scholar Walter Mignolo, one of the most prominent theorists of postcolonialism in its Latin Americanist version and professor at Duke University. When asked why he wrote his "The idea of Latin America" in English, being an academic trained in Argentina and France, Mignolo (González, 2006) just answered "in the domain in which the book operates, I suspect there are more Spanish speakers who read English than the other way around". This suggests that the key to success in social sciences is largely the ability to participate in the academic system of the Anglosphere. Would Mignolo have acquired the same theoretical relevance if he had developed his academic career in his native Argentina? It is highly unlikely. Does this mean that scholars from peripheral countries must spend some time working in the Anglosphere, or even their whole academic career there, as did Ernesto Laclau, to effectively spread their ideas?Although there are examples to the contrary -such as Enrique Dussel, an Argentine philosopher currently residing in Mexico and a prominent representative of Latin American social thought; Jacques Rancière, one of the most important French philosophers who offers a radically new conception of emancipation; and, the Mexican organizational theorist Eduardo Ibarra-Colado, the alluring power of the material and symbolic resources (i.e., prestige) provided by Englishspeaking countries, and mainly the U.S. and U.K., is a decisive factor in the construction of the epistemic hegemony of the...
