Systems Techniques for Managing Society: A Critique
The scientific management of society is no closer to achievement now than it was a decade ago when analysis and related techniques appeared on the government scene. The only difference is that the use of these methods is prevalent; interests have become vested, experts with systems competence have penetrated the managerial echelons of public agencies at every level of government-federal, state, and countyand the din from the methodological bandwa…

Examining this phenomenon critically, Ida R. Hoos reviews sy…
