Edited by Bjørn T. Asheim, PhD, Professor of Economic Geography and Innovation Theory, Thomas Laudal, PhD, Associate Professor of Institutional Economics and Reidar J. Mykletun, PhD, Professor of Organisational Psychology, University of Stavanger Business School, Stavanger, Norway‘<i>Business schools can be institutional leaders in reshaping regional and national economies in support of inclusive and environmentally-sensitive growth. But for this to happen, business school faculty and administrators need to take a long hard look at what is currently being taught and practiced and reflect on how it might curtail real or lasting institutional change. This book offers a refreshing mix of introspection and humility, illuminating options for on-going institutional reform—at once bold and actionable.’</i>

<i>‘Business Schools are very often teaching the sort of capitalism that is now creating climate change, inequality and populism. If we can't shut them down, then the least that could be done is to take their important responsibilities to our collective future seriously. This book is an important contribution to forcing them to do that.’</i>
