Classics in production and operations management

Abstract

Contends that most collections of classic works are the result, primarily, of subjective criteria applied by one editor or a small group of editors. Provides a list of authors and classic works in the field of production and operations management (POM) arrived at by applying more objective criteria. Maintains that this listing was developed, not from the preferences of the researchers, but rather on the basis of results of a survey of those persons most involved in the field: POM educators and scholars.
