Abstract:

We explore the acceptance of new contingent work relationships in the United States to reveal an emergent entrepreneurial ideology. Our argument is that these new work relationships represent a new social order not situated in the conglomerates and labor unions of the past, but on a confluence of neo-liberalism and individual action situated in the discourse of entrepreneurialism, employability and free agency. This new employment relationship, which arose during the economic and social disruptions in the 1970s, defines who belongs inside an organization (and can take part in its benefits) and who must properly remain outside to fend for themselves. More generally, the fusing of entrepreneurship with neo-liberalism has altered not only how we work and where we work, but also what we believe is appropriate work and what rewards should accompany it.

The world Is greatly polarized and is borne with changing thoughts and prejudices in an arena of diverse explicative management systems. Post liberalization in 1990 when the world was fighting with changing technological revolution the birth of newer industry 4.0 lead to newer organizational hierarchy with knowledge management functionalities which made it necessary for business professionals to think rapidly and innovate with the speed of thunderstorm. In such drastic times, the global economy saw several financial booms and crashes which made it necessary to reinvent disruptive innovation at its core and greatly circumscribe the way organizational commitment to change its course of action. The Hayekian philosophy of dialects in knowledge transfer mechanism with institutional leadership saw newer innovation funnels which were more agile to crashes and recovery phase was quite small. In such cirmcumstance,the new pandemic like Covid-19 saw economists jump to multidisciplinary approach of organizational commitment with a moving away from traditional Schumpeterian philosophy and a disruptive invisible hand wherein multicretria technical models of sustainable business practices saw rising needs top fill the research gap in international scientific discourses.
