Abstract
This thesis develops the proposition of post-simulacral organising as a mode of organising practice. The proposition is developed out of a review of present organisational theory, with an emphasis of process theories of organisation, including interpretive construction, sensemaking, performance/performativity, enactment, and autopoiesis. The possible implications of these theories are discussed in reflection of some present conditions-apparent of organisational theory and practice, finding them to be contradictory to the theoretic findings. Tropic and simulacral modes of meaning and meaning production are introduced, and synthesised into the proposition of post-simulacral organisation, which mends, bridges, sidesteps, or removes the contradictions diagnosed in the analysis.
