Project management"
as created by this school of thought, exhibits the
characteristics ofwhat Alvesson and Willmott (1996) called
management as colonising power and management as distorted
communication. From this perspective, the possibility of critical
project management will depend on the extent to which
a social theory about the nature of projects provides concerned
actors with authentic insights into their position in
project environments, leading to their enlightenment,
changed attitudes and emancipatory action.
