TY - CHAP ID - citeulike:4057336 L3 - citeulike-article-id:4057336 N2 - This treatise has come a long way. Although one searches for something novel in any treatise, it is impossible to state where and how to search until one finally hits on something that appears meaningful. If the outcome were predetermined, one would not need to search in the first place. The sense a book makes can only be fixed and discussed in a retrospective manner. Within this study we have come across a variety of issues, which we will now reconceptualize in order to display their contributions. Even though chapter six and seven discussed detailed implications of our deconstructive reading of strategic management, there is still the need to condense the core messages of this study. Section 8.1 takes a retrospective perspective and presents the central findings of our discussion, whereas section 8.2 is prospective in that it outlines what kind of scholarship can support the central findings. In this sense, section 8.2 tells us what scholars can do to take the core findings (section 8.1) of this study seriously.
