Arguments For Managerialism
What is the justification for Managerialism? There is no ready justification. It evolved in the face of the breakdown of other ideologies such as capitalism, communism, democracy, etc... and in the vacuum created by the fact that intellectuals have not constructed an alternative ideology which might have some moral justification. Managerialism is an ideology created by managers. It should come as no surprise that it is also an ideology for managers. That is not justification. It is an explanation.

Famous quotes containing the word arguments:
“Compared to football, baseball is almost an Oriental game, minimizing individual stardom, requiring a wide range of aggressive and defensive skills, and filled with long periods of inaction and irresolution. It has no time limitations. Football, on the other hand, has immediate goals, resolution on every single play, and a lot of violence—itself a highlight. It has clearly distinguishable hierarchies: heroes and drones.”
—Jerry Mander, U.S. advertising executive, author. Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television, ch. 15, Morrow (1978)
