Abstract

The article questions the epistemological application of the principles of classical Aristotelian logic to “Organisations”. The latter are now evolving in a knowledge society, marked by digital technology and open innovation strategies. The case study is based on observations and semi-open interviews with participants of Fashion Green Hub (FGH) and the digital medium Slack. FGH presents an organised-organising, bazaar-like (Raymond, 1999) emergence of protagonists around attractive key values and ideas. These new noorganisations imply managerial changes in relation to ideas, uncertainty, commitment and trust.
