School reform, standards testing and English language learners
Interviews with state and local education officials in Oregon and Washington, USA, explored how American educators serving English language learners addressed their students' needs as they face the high-stakes assessments mandated by school reform legislation.

Books as museum objects
This paper considers the problems raised by the holding of books in museums, as opposed to libraries, when they have been collected and donated to such institutions, not primarily as works of reference or as literature, but rather as art objects in themselves. Books in such a context present difficulties for curators and public alike, and these issues range from the organisational to the philosophical. Matters of conservation, presentation and In…

In recent years state and local governments have relied increasingly on a silent partner—the contract consultant—who is neither accountable nor responsive to democratic control. After discussing the rise in government consulting, this article suggests that the hiring of consultants is frequently motivated by a hidden agenda: The quest for legitimacy. On the basis of brief case histories of contract consulting, we argue that legitimacy comes as mu…

Managerial Strategies and the Worker: A Marxist Analysis of Bureaucracy
Systematic study of the sociology of organizations is almost absent in both the classical and modern Marxist traditions. Although some recent studies in the Marxist tradition show considerable promise, the field has been dominated by the Weberian perspective. The development of new theory should be informed by the Marxian concepts of (a) labor theory of value, (b) the forces and relations of production, (c) historical development of capitalism, a…
