Anita Mangan is an Associate Professor in Organisation Studies at the University of Bristol. Her research focuses on co-operatives, credit unions, and alternative forms of organizing, particularly in relation to social justice and community activism. Mangan's work aims to provide a counternarrative to austerity and the marketization of precarious work, emphasizing the importance of identity, subjectivity, power, and control. She employs Foucault's discourse analysis in her research to explore issues of social solidarity, with a keen interest in the contributions of non-profit organizations to community well-being. Currently, she is engaged in projects related to union co-operatives, the history of co-operatives in Bristol, and the response of Irish credit unions to the Covid-19 pandemic. Mangan is also open to supervising postgraduate research in qualitative studies connected to co-operatives and alternative economic models.
