Drawing on Marxism and engaging with theorists such as Mikhail
Bakhtin, Gilles Deleuze, and Slavoj i ek, John Michael Roberts
argues that a new expressive ideology has coalesced within the
contemporary workplace around the theme of 'competence'. The
'competence' agenda encourages management and workers to build
networks of trust, cooperation and dialogue between one another. By
examining the competent public sphere as it appears in the global
economy, the author takes to task the competence agenda, relates
this agenda to the hegemony of global finance and to the fetishism
of the new economy, exposes the dilemmas and contradictions of the
competence agenda, and through everyday examples from the UK and
USA illustrates how competence is played out and resisted in the
contemporary workplace. This bookprovides a fascinating critical
account of how the way we work today is debated and discussed by
management and workers.
