Purpose

This study aims to offer a postcolonial approach that goes past current management history controversies.

Design/methodology/approach

Discussion of current management history controversies with examples.

Findings

Post-colonial approaches to management history enable engagement with questions of power and knowledge in the management discipline.

Research limitations/implications

Further historical research is needed that considers the interplay of disciplinary knowledge and the historical events under question, especially in post-colonial settings.

Practical implications

It is essential to engage with historical texts and interpretations to better understand the contextual limitations to management as a discipline: a better understanding of disciplinary pasts enables us to better understand the present.

Social implications

By considering management’s pasts, this paper can acknowledge more closely how the discipline continues to retain colonialist assumptions that need to be challenged and changed.

Originality/value

Examples of management history from formerly colonized regions.
