Description: Although human lives towards the second half of the 20th century became increasingly mediated by objects and artifacts and have depended heavily on the functioning of technical systems materiality in a broad sense became relatively marginalized as a topic of research interest. This volume contributes to redressing the balance by drawing together the work of scholars involved in exploring the sociomaterial dimensions of organizational life.
