Language, Bureaucracy and Social Control explores the varying
inter-relationships between language, forms of bureaucratic
organisation and social control. The text provides a detailed
examination of the discursive dimensions of some of the key
techniques of modern power: the 'productive' surveillance practices
of administrative and public service institutions. Special
attention is paid to recent developments within the state domain
and the private economy such as the introduction of consumerism and
promotional practices in welfare institutions, and the spread of
bureaucratisation in contexts such as banking and education.
