Summary
Marie-Thérèse Claes’s chapter examines the impact of positivist theories in intercultural management and proposes three further positions that hold a scientific view of culture, making a distinction between emic and etic approaches. In particular, this chapter suggests a move from positivist to interpretive, postmodern and critical approaches, all of which are illustrated with examples.
