The “Making Projects Critical” 6th International Workshop on Critical Studies of Project Based Work, PM and the projectification of society and life at large was held in January 21 and 22, 2011, Bristol, UK. A key concern of this workshop is to employ critical perspectives to analyse and evaluate the practice of PM and decision making as evidenced in the approval, governance and control of project work and project workers.
