About the Book

The book critically examines current views and research on the significance and impact of privatisation in public sector organizations, consumers and government and in particular its impact on the workforce and the health service. The book takes the form of a general reader but it is not simply descriptive or prescriptive. Instead, each topic/chapter provides a snapshot of a particular organization at a specific point in time and includes a review of related literature and research findings, empirical studies and case material that serves to illuminate the area. Also included are examples of problems and conflicts inherent in the move to privatisation.
