CAREER DESCRIPTION

My degrees are in law and in economics (BA Law, First, Sheffield University 1979; MA

Economics, Warwick University 1981; PhD Economics, Warwick University 1985). I have

worked at the Wissenschafts-zentrum, Berlin, Germany (1983-1984), the University of

Edinburgh, UK (1984-1990) and the University of Birmingham, UK (1990-2008), where I was

Professor at the Birmingham Business School (from 1995). I became Professor of Socio-

Economic Development and founding Head of Stirling Management School at the University

of Stirling, UK (in 2008). As such I was a member of the University’s Senior Management

Team. I took up my role at UBC in October 2012. I have also been Visiting Professor at the

University of Ferrara, Italy (1999-2005), worked significant periods at the University of

Wisconsin-Milwaukee, US (especially 2000-2004), and have taught and given research

seminars in various countries, including Argentina, Chile, China, Finland, France, Germany,

Ghana, Italy, Nicaragua, Spain and the US.

Leading and managing experience

As Head of Stirling Management School, one of my especial concerns was developing and

implementing a strategy for bringing together four previously separate departments, each

with its own aims and culture, into a new and distinctive School suited to the University of

Stirling. The new School explicitly emphasised relevance to people, places and thus public

interests, a perspective that has been called for in business/management schools as a

matter of urgency but that has not typically been delivered (inter alia British Journal of

Management 2010). I was also a member of the University’s Senior Management Team and,

in that capacity, took the lead in developing the new University Internationalisation

Strategy.

My work at Stirling built upon capabilities developed at the University of

Birmingham, in particular as Head of the Business School’s Department of Commerce, 1996-

2000 and 2003-2004; as Director of inter-related research centres, 1990-2008; and through

my responsibility for leading the Industrial and Labour Economics Group to a 5 rating in the

2001 Research Assessment Exercise.

Teaching philosophy

I view teaching as rooted in the need to search for the spirit of the truth (Furedi, 2004;

Graham, 2005) using a balanced mix of both sense (including coherence, robustness and

rigour) and sensibility (Docherty, 2008).1 I would agree with Thomas Docherty that there

are deficiencies in having “a form of knowledge that was not ‘lived’, not actually ‘felt’ at

the inner level of sensibility” (Docherty, 2008, 4).

My approach to teaching is strongly influenced by the work of Chomsky on intrinsic

creativity, especially his suggestion that each person has a creative impulse, the aim of

education being “to provide the soil and the freedom required for the growth of this

creative impulse, to provide, in other words, a complex and challenging environment” that

the person “can imaginatively explore” (Chomsky, 1975, 164).2 I also embrace Chomsky’s

argument that the purpose of education is not “to control” a person’s “growth to a

specific, predetermined end, because any such end must be established by arbitrary

authoritarian means; rather, the purpose of education must be to permit the growing

principle of life to take its own individual course, and to facilitate this process by

sympathy, encouragement, and challenge, and by developing a rich and differentiated

context and environment” (Chomsky, 1975, 164).

From Dewey I take a particular concern with experiences, including his idea “that

every experience both takes up something from those which have gone before and modifies

in some way the quality of those which come after” (Dewey, 1938, 35); and his stress on

the quality of an experience that “arouses curiosity, strengthens initiative, and sets up

desires and purposes that are sufficiently intense to carry a person over dead places in the

future” (Dewey, 1938, 38).3

Moreover, I see teaching as itself a Deweyan experience that changes both teacher

and student; a transformative process in which neither teacher nor student are passive

recipients (Docherty, 2012; Biesta, 2012).4 Communication is central in this process and in

that context I am especially concerned with varied forms of communicating academic

argument, including use of the visual (Rose, 2012).5

Teaching experience

My teaching experience spans delivery and assessment at all undergraduate and graduate

levels, from responsibility for first year undergraduate microeconomics (University of

Edinburgh) to final year undergraduate public finance (University of Edinburgh) and

industrial economics (Universities of Birmingham and Ferrara); from taught Masters

programmes (Universities of Birmingham and Stirling) to PhD supervision (Universities of

Birmingham, Edinburgh, Ferrara and Stirling), including nine successful theses to date. I

have been an external examiner in the UK for undergraduate economics (University of

Leeds, 1993-97), graduate economics (University of Strathclyde, 1997-2001) and PhD theses

(Universities of Bath, Cambridge, Leeds, St Andrews, Strathclyde and Warwick).

My experience encompasses leading roles in the design and creation of, and teaching

on, various innovative programmes:

(1) A joint PhD programme between the Universities of Birmingham and Ferrara

(2) An annual, two week graduate school (which ran for over ten years in various countries)

on governance, development and public policy, designed for students and early-career

faculty from an international base; my role in this School also encompassed pulling

together the subject strands of the school, to give coherence and focus on core issues

(3) An internationally taught Maestría en Economía y Desarrollo Industrial (Master's Degree

in Economics and Industrial Development), based in Argentina; my role in this

programme also encompassed the development of an international network of scholars

who would contribute teaching

(4) MSc programmes in socio-economic development at the Universities of Birmingham and

Stirling

I was also the academic lead for, and taught on, the Birmingham hosted Universitas 21

Summer School 2008, “Embracing Diversity through Creativity, Culture and Innovation”.

Again, this encompassed my pulling together the subject strands of the school, to give

coherence and focus on core issues.

I am especially interested in the possibility of learning programmes that are

innovative in curricula (crossing disciplines, stretching students intellectually whilst

contributing to their career progression and citizenship) and novel in delivery. Included in

this, I have a concern with different learning environments (notably, mixes of virtual and

face-to-face learning) combined with the development of international networks as an

input to cooperative, inquiry-based learning. Related to this, I was recipient of an award (in

2006) from TE3 at the Mercia Enterprise Institute to pursue the requirements for

introducing international graduate learning initiatives using virtual learning environments.

I am particularly interested in the use and development of teaching methods and

techniques that foster intercultural communication and improve the student experience. To

that effect, notable innovations include:

(a) Introduction into Masters programmes of a workshop on internationalisation (March

2012). This brought together faculty and students to analyse the internationalisation of

higher education and to shape their own experiences; deployed photo-elicitation as a

stimulant to analysis and means of expression; initiated reflective journals as a means

of assessment for the module. I was both academic lead for the workshop and an active

participant-observer.

(b) Use of visual and sound based methods of analysis and communication, and digital

media, to present academic arguments in Masters programmes - the digi-essay project

(October 2011). This built on use of such methods at the Universitas 21 Summer School,

2008 (see above). The novelty of the digi-essay project in management teaching was

recognised by its having been the recipient of funding from SELF (Stirling Enhancement

of Learning Fund) and the subject of a poster presentation at the Stirling Education Fair

2012. I was both an academic lead and a teacher for the digi-essay.

Student feedback

In 2012 students nominated me for a University of Stirling Students Union RATE (Recognising

Achievements in Teaching Excellence) Award.

Research interests

My research has focused on economic organisation and development, viewed in the context

of globalisation and centred on the prospects for public initiatives that might stimulate

socio-economic democracy. My current research is especially concerned with the

organising, leading and managing of universities, and with the role of universities in

communities and societies.

Among my publications, a continuing series that establish and develop the strategic

choice approach to the theory and impact of organisations, hence to local economic

development and public policy, is especially prominent. See, for example, papers in Review

of Social Economy (2009), International Review of Applied Economics (2006; 2009),

Contributions to Political Economy (2002; 2005), Higher Education Quarterly (2004),

Accounting, Auditing and Accountability Journal (2000), New Political Economy (1999),

Kyklos (1999), The Manchester School (1998) and Oxford Review of Economic Policy (1993).

International research and teaching projects

I have led and managed international research and teaching projects since the early 1990s.

I was Coordinator of large networking initiatives under the European Commission’s Human

Capital and Mobility Programme. They resulted in the creation of the European Network on

Industrial Policy (EUNIP), of which I was founding coordinator. They also resulted in the

creation of L’institute, a multinational joint venture between the Universities of

Birmingham, Ferrara and Wisconsin-Milwaukee; I was co-founder and Director of L’institute,

which was designed to pursue multinational networking in the subject of public policy and

the development of economies in Europe, the Americas and Asia. The development of

L’institute is analysed in my paper in Higher Education Quarterly (2004); and that of

L’institute and EUNIP is studied in my chapter (with Bailey, De Propris and Wilson) in

Aranguren et al (2008).


7

In addition, I have been a Coordinator and Principal Scientist in other European

Commission projects and was Coordinator of projects funded by the British Council

(Argentina) and British Embassy (Buenos Aires) to support the European/Mercosur Network

on Industrial Economic Strategy. I was co-convenor of a European Science Foundation

Exploratory Workshop (held in San Sebastián, Spain, November 2005). I was also one of the

Coordinators of a series of festivals of creativity and socio-economic development. These

were each supported by local businesses, municipalities and other organisations. They were

held in Gambettola (Italy) in 2007 and 2009, and in Mar del Plata (Argentina) in 2008 and

2009. These festivals have a concern with creativity, art and artistic activities that is

reflected in my having been Academic Lead for a Knowledge Transfer Partnership with

MacRobert Arts Centre Ltd (Scotland).
