Abstract The adoption of design thinking (DT) as content or methodology for management education has increased. Despite the recognizable potentials of it, this paper argues the need to explain the nature of DT as a distinctive approach and aims to elaborate on a critical appraisal of DT in management education. In order to accomplish it, specific objectives are pursued: (1) to contrast the understanding of design (erly) thinking in the academic field of design with an understanding of DT within management, and (2) to understand the fundamental arguments for the approximation between design and management education, the antecedents of this movement and the ontological and epistemological implications of it in the research and professional training in the scope of management. Finally, the text recapitulates the possibilities opened up by the critical appraisal of DT and indicates the need to advance the discussions on the integration between theory and practice in management education.

设计很酷，但是……对管理教育中设计思维的批判性评价

摘要 越来越多地采用设计思维 (DT) 作为管理教育的内容或方法。尽管它具有公认的潜力，但本文认为有必要将 DT 的性质解释为一种独特的方法，并旨在详细阐述管理教育中对 DT 的批判性评估。为了实现它，追求特定的目标：(1) 将设计学术领域对设计 (erly) 思维的理解与管理中对 DT 的理解进行对比，以及 (2) 理解近似的基本论点在设计和管理教育之间，这一运动的前身以及它在管理范围内的研究和专业培训中的本体论和认识论意义。最后，
