    The Role of Tradition in Crisis - ‘Women and Children First’
    (British Academy of Management, 2024-09-02) Thompson, Ed; Buckley, Daniel
    This paper considers how solutions created during crisis by bricolage can permeate the popular narrative to become traditions, using the example of ‘women and children first’ established in 1852 during the sinking of HMS Birkenhead off the coast of South Africa. The theoretical implications include bricolaged solutions lasting over many years between and across situations.
