其他摘要:Purpose: This article aims to reflect, from the perspective of critical post modernity, on a possible conceptual proposition about dignity in orga- nizations. Originality/gap/relevance/implications: In the field of organizational stu- dies, dignity in organizations has not been considered through the per - ception of a world of intense movement of capital, technology, goods, workers, and employees between organizations, as well as the migration between countries of citizens of different countries. It is argued, there- fore, that the design of such phenomenon should examine in depth the respect for different knowledges, besides the idea of interculturalism. Key methodological aspects: As there are few papers written about this theme, our paper is a theoretical essay. Summary of key results: Taking the concept of dignity as a starting point, we tried first to outline a conceptual approach aimed at transposing its sociopolitical perspective, and then to propose a perspective on dignity in organizations that transcends modernity. Ideas on the ecology of kno - wledges, relationships of shared authority, and respect for the principles of equality and difference, beyond reciprocal recognition and the availa- bility for mutual enrichment, were the qualifying elements in defining our conceptual propositions. Key considerations/conclusions: As a theoretical contribution, we sought to introduce a new perspective on the dignity phenomenon; thus, we tried to break through, in this field of studies, with a view that unders- tands dignity and emancipation as a single concept, in which the new element would be interculturalism.
