Joost Luyckx is an assistant professor of business and society at IESEG School of Management, Campus Lille. He received his PhD from KU Leuven, Belgium.
His empirical work focuses on legitimacy struggles over multinational corporations, alternative ways of organizing, institutional maintenance of inequalities, desirable futures of work, and neutralization of social movement activism. The aim of his research is to further our understanding of how ideology-laden macro-discourses and narratives contribute to the neutralization of emancipatory projects in and around organizations and the obstruction of social change.
