Abstract
In this introduction, the editors define the context for the book, setting out the need for new enquiries to include nonhuman animals into business, management, and organization studies, thus offering up a definition of Animal Organization Studies. The introduction explores the themes of the book organized into four parts and a rationale for the structure is discussed. These four parts are: (1) Organizing Animals: Past, Present, Future; (2) Organizing Animal Encounters: Knowing, Meaning, and Materiality; (3) Sustainability, Identity, and Ethics: Animals in Production and Consumption Systems; and (4) Care, Cultures, and Affect in Animal Work Relations. Finally, a precis of each chapter is presented, and connections are drawn between them where useful.
