The New Work Order: Behind the Language of the New Capitalism

Rating:
Summary: Excellent review of work changes under "fast capitalism."
Review: The book is a thoughtful, balanced and readable review of the changes taking place in the workplace under "fast capitalism." It provides much-needed balance to the uncritical promotion of change by promoters of "fast capitalism" like Peter Drucker and Tom Peters. Two excellent case studies show some limitations to the ways in which change is being promoted and underpinned.
