“…A more compelling explanation, we believe, is not to view the free movement and free trade as effective to economic integration and growth. This is related to the claim that free trade has transformed, and will continue to transform, the world for the better (Boussebaa 2019). The EU has become one of the most important advocates of a deep trade agenda at the multilateral and regional levels (Leblond and Viju‐Miljusevic 2019).…”

“…The EU has become one of the most important advocates of a deep trade agenda at the multilateral and regional levels (Leblond and Viju‐Miljusevic 2019). Imperial revivalism goes hand‐in‐hand with nations pursuit of free trade with “emerging markets,” in an effort—aimed at maintaining access to those markets and ensuring the country's various monopolies, much like in the days of the Empire—to continue to dominate the world economy (Boussebaa 2019).…”

As the world starts reopening following the lockdowns prompted by the COVID‐19 pandemic, regional collaborations and trade matters have resurfaced. While the Brexit (British exit from the EU) negotiations have dominated regional trade headlines, the fate of the African Continental Free Trade Agreement is also being rethought. In all these, however, the issue of regional integration, administration, and governance of treaties and policies remain contentious areas. Considering these concerns, this article draws insights from the regionalization of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS). We explore the “isms” (that is, the ideologies of realism, neoliberalism, intergovernmentalism, institutionalism, and regionalism) that impact upon the achievement and implementation of the regional governance system. We analyze ECOWAS' current strategy toward the integration of the West African region, its successes, and its failures. Also, we highlight some of the challenges concerning the implementation of treaties. Finally, we evaluate the underlying national preferences and the implications for the “isms” in many settings.

“…The remaining two papers in this group turn the focus specifically on (critical) management education and curriculum. Boussebaa (2020) scrutinises the ‘Global Britain’ project sponsored by the British government and the role that business schools might play in it. He argues that this project is bound up with British imperialism, displays ‘postcolonial melancholia’ (Gilroy, 2004) and that, while business schools are notionally anti-Brexit, they are complicit in the ‘Global Britain’ project by propagating elements of its imperialist discourse.…”

In this editorial, we aim to introduce the diverse set of 21 papers we have curated over the past 2 years, to review their collective contribution to the knowledge base in critical management and organisation studies, and to reflect on how they add to and challenge existing debates within our field. These papers speak about populism in a wide range of voices from multiple perspectives. The geographical reach is wide, with populism discussed in relation to the contexts of India, Latin America, France, the United Kingdom and the United States by authors working in the latter three countries as well as Belgium, Brazil, Denmark, Finland, New Zealand, Pakistan, Sweden and the Netherlands. The papers cross disciplinary and theoretical boundaries, drawing on political science, history, sociology, psychoanalysis and philosophy. Methodolotgical approaches include ethnography, historical narrative, discursive approaches and autoethnography. As such, these papers raise important questions and offer perspectives and ways forward that are in urgent need of attention and discussion by critical management and organisation studies communities, challenging readers’ understandings of populism at macro, meso and micro levels of analysis. Here we tie the whole series together by highlighting emergent themes and identifying future research directions that these papers have opened up.

В монографии исследуются особенности внешней политики Великобритании после референдума о членстве страны в Европейском союзе. На фоне брекзита и кризиса евроатлантической солидарности перед британским руководством стояла задача сформулировать новые стратегические приоритеты во внешней политике. Концепция «Глобальной Британии», предложенная брекзитёрами, в силу своей незавершённости пока не отвечает на все вызовы, связанные с вероятной утратой международного влияния. Правительству Соединённого Королевства необходимо разрешить многочисленные стратегические дилеммы, в т.ч. определить параметры отношений с ЕС и укрепить «особые отношения» с Вашингтоном, сформулировать адекватную собственным интересам линию на китайском направлении, а также сформулировать долгосрочную стратегию в отношении РФ. Брекзит ознаменовал новую страницу во внешней политике Великобритании, однако именно последствия коронакризиса 2020 г. ускорят разработку внешнеполитической стратегии страны. Лондон будет встраиваться в новый мировой порядок с высокой степенью информационной конфронтации и экономической конкуренции.
