Maggiori informazioni sul libro
Many people have experienced management at work, with some exposed to Managerialism. Once Managerialism transcended the simplicity of managing companies, it mutated into an ideology infiltrating nearly every aspect of human life. This book delivers a comprehensive definition of Managerialism and traces its origins from simple factory administration to its current form as a full-blown ideology that has affected private lives, public and educational institutions, society, the arts, the economy, and even democracy. Today, thousands of managers have graduated from Managerialism's main training facilities, namely management schools. They are ready to spread Managerialism's one-dimensional, anti-democratic, and authoritarian ideology that everything can be managed through a specific set of managerial knowledge found in management studies. However, there are also challenges to Managerialism and visions of what lies beyond it. These post-managerial images include a rejection of the human and environmental destructiveness of Managerialism, as well as ways to create human and sustainable post-managerial living conditions.
