Title

Managerialism In Us Universities: Implications For The Academic Accounting Profession

Keywords

Managerialism; Market narrative; University governance

Abstract

The purpose of this essay is to present a brief, personal commentary on managerialism in US universities and on its effects on the academic accounting profession. I contrast an Enlightenment narrative and a Market narrative as a way to discuss the influences that numeracy, technology, and globalization have on the spread of managerialism within university governance. In addition, I relate these narratives to more complex views of 'old' managerialism and 'neo'-managerialism, and I discuss them within the context of the US accounting academy. © 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.
