SIXTY YEARS OF RAE: A JOURNEY OF CRITICISM, RESISTANCE AND REINVENTION

ABSTRACT

This article reflectively deals with the course taken by the journal over the 60 years it has been in existence, based on the author's experience as someone who was been associated with RAE-Revista de Administração de Empresas for all these years. We deal with its beginning as a pioneering periodical of business administration that divulged concepts, theories and practices that are predominantly American in origin, until we reach today when it emerges as a journal that has left behind its generalist origin and has begun to emphasize areas such as Organization and Organizational Studies, Strategy and Human Resources or People Management. Initially as a journal that was identified with a business school, FGV EAESP, it became a Brazilian journal with its own authors, consultants and associate editors from other institutions, and today it is working to establish itself as an international journal that is published in Portuguese and English, and that deals with contemporary topics mostly from a critical perspective. The growing methodological sophistication of the journal and the topics it publishes are a far cry from the early years, when it was a journal we could consider to be provincial. There is no doubt that we have made progress. Congratulations and a happy 60 years to RAE.
