“…For example, Küpers (2015, 34) suggest that nurses are required to have “excellent moral sensibilities for instance a vision and commitment to good clinical and caring practices” as well as and embodied ethical know-how. This shows the idea of a vision in which the mind and body are not radically separated (Islam, 2015). Art involved with emotions reinforces the emergence of “imaginaries to go beyond the world as it is” (Bureau and Zander, 2014, p. 126).…”

Purpose The purpose of this systematic narrative review is to discourse on vision and organizational performance. By analysing work-life and organization studies journals, the authors respond to a call to view the process of visioning more holistically. Design/methodology/approach The methodological approach is a discourse-oriented qualitative content analysis. The authors explore visioning through an epistemological lens, which emphasizes both the connections and differences between “traditional” philosophical approaches. Findings The findings show how the different interpretations of vision and related concepts are tied to the following themes: clarity, causality, embodiment and sensory experiences and actionability. Originality/value Through the frameworks of scientific realism and relativism, the authors illustrate novel insights into the ways in which visioning occupies a place in knowledge management.

“…The idea of acquiring the qualities of what one eats seemed, in these stories, quite rooted in those populations. And not only enemy tribes at war, but also travelers, adventurers, and priests may have been considered a source of some admired quality: The Jesuit priests excelled in the effort of catechesis, of converting the Indians to Catholicism, and there are ‘accounts of early Brazil, in which Jesuits’ attempts to promote devotion among the indigenous inhabitants led to the devoration of the priests themselves by these inhabitants’ (Islam, 2015, p. 352, emphasis in original). The demand for bravery established a complicity between captives and captors.…”

“…Instead of empty anesthesia, ignoring broader political and social structures, it was precisely through the focus on sensory and bodily aspects of experience that these larger structures became more salient. Considering that foreign culture had been imported mainly in the form of abstract, supposedly universal principles of theory, the metaphor of devouring European culture was a way of both by appropriating this culture and subverting it by insisting on the carnal element of this appropriation (Islam, 2015, p. 354).…”

Anthropophagy, European enlightenment, science and technology studies, and responsible knowledge construction in Brazil

Many parts of the world receive from abroad not only objects of technology, but also scientific discoveries, and organizing elements and practices as well. Since these entities materially comprehend a formidable part of their modes of existence, let us say that non-Western countries result from ontologies/epistemologies that in large part come from abroad. This manifested coloniality emerges in the feeling of contradiction between national realities and the ideological prestige of the Western imperial centers that serve as models to them. This configures a malaise that is deeply rooted in educated Brazilians. I discuss lines of flight from that malaise in an articulation that configures a philosophical and political novelty in Brazil. In examples concerning computing in Brazil, I juxtapose elements of STS, the metaphorical anthropophagic movement, and the European Enlightenment project, to enact a more symmetrical, dialogical, and inclusive world by constructing ‘respectful enough’ stories. In doing so, the anthropophagic movement, previously in practice restricted to the artistic realms, incorporates sciences and technologies. In each of these stories, the enlightened motto ‘daring to know’ is juxtaposed with the anthropophagic metaphorical motto ‘eat the stranger’ around modern Western scientific and technological issues in local situated ways.

“…In his next article,Islam (2014) sought to make a theoretical contribution by introducing the concept of cultural anthropophagy in the literature on diversity. The author appropriated Kristeva's notion of abjection to understand cultural anthropophagy more clearly; further, he put forward the argument that cultural anthropophagy crosses borders and builds identity through desire and aggression toward those who are valued by them Islam (2015). investigates corporality and the mixture of culture.…”

RESUMO Esse ensaio discorre sobre as possibilidades que o conceito de perspectivismo ameríndio de Viveiros de Castro oferece aos Estudos Organizacionais. O "Manifesto antropófago" de Oswald de Andrade é o fio condutor de nossa investigação. O perspectivismo ameríndio sugere um deslocamento reflexivo para a posição ocupada pelo objeto de investigação que, assim, se torna o sujeito a partir do qual devemos questionar nossas próprias premissas. O que importa saber é como nosso sujeito/ex-objeto percebe nossas categorias/conceitos criadas para descrevê-lo. Para Viveiros de Castro, o deslocamento reflexivo deve ocorrer considerado-se uma equivocidade intencional. Portanto, devemos refletir sobre as consequências que nossas escolhas ontoepistemológicas terão sobre nossa pesquisa a partir do ponto de vista do Outro. Os conceitos de deslocamento reflexivo e equivocidade intencional têm muito a contribuir com a construção do Outro em EOR e com o conceito de border thinking nos estudos decolonais.
