A Malediction upon Management.

Inglis, Fred

Journal of Education Policy, v15 n4 p417-29 Jul-Aug 2000

Ties the emergence of turbo-capitalism to concerns about governments' legitimacy and the wholesale auditing of public institutions. Criticizes hastily contrived auditing procedures for their irrelevance, narrowly focused financial criteria, and a blame-oriented view of accountability. Traditional policy values are being eclipsed by consumer totalitarianism. (Contains 26 references.) (MLH)
