Conflicting Logics of Public Relations in the English NHS
Since the formation of the National Health Service (NHS), all UK citizens have been entitled to access a universal health service, but radical changes to the NHS are now occurring. Although recent NHS policy claims that 'the NHS belongs to us all' and 'the NHS is a social movement', these collectivist rhetorical claims appear when such communitarian discourse is under threat, as NHS's Five Year Forward View tries to square the circle of efficienc…
The contested terrain of hospital management
Although much has been written on the changing management of professional services organizations, only limited attention has been given to the way in which management itself might represent a contested terrain. Drawing on concepts from the sociology of professions, this article develops this idea in relation to the Danish hospital sector. The analysis of secondary sources reveals how, from the mid-1980s, both the nursing and medical professions i…
Medicine and management in a comparative perspective
In health systems around the world the current trend has been for doctors to increase their participation in management. This has been taken to imply a common process of re-stratification with new divisions emerging between medical elites and the rank and file. However, our understanding of this change remains limited and it is open to question just how far one can generalise. In this paper we investigate this matter drawing on path dependency th…
Medicine, Nursing and Changing Professional Jurisdictions in the UK
This chapter is concerned with the changing boundaries between the professions of medicine and nursing, and how the relations that these occupations have with the UK Government has produced some distinctive changes in their work practices and occupational jurisdictions. To state the problem simply, though not necessarily inaccurately: to the Government and the National Health Service (NHS) management, the medical profession is a problem that nurs…
Citizens at the Centre
Davies, C., Wetherell, M. and Barnett, E. Citizens at the Centre: deliberative participation in healthcare decisions . 2006 Bristol : The Policy Press £23.99 vii + 292pp . ISBN 10 1 86134 802 9 (pbk) This is a most intriguing book. It tells the unfinished story of the workings of the Citizens Council within NICE (National Institute for [Health and] Clinical Excellence). In doing this it reflects upon deliberative participation. The authors come t…
Symposium on Changing Modes of Governance in Public Sector Organizations
This symposium grew out of the sub‐theme, ‘New Modes of Governance in Public Sector Organizations’, of the European Group for Organizational Studies (EGOS) Conference held in Ljubljana in July 2004. Our aim was to provide a forum to discuss the policy and practice and the space between in public sector management and governance within Europe

Abingdon : Routledge , 2004 £23.99 (pbk) 350 pp ISBN 0-415-34072-1 I feel very ambivalent about this book.

The organisation of the text is highly rationalised, it comprises six parts, each consisting of five papers, and …
Disciplining the medical profession? Implications of patient choice for medical dominance
This paper deals with the dynamics of medical dominance and patient choice, primarily within the Britain, with reference to a range of other European countries too (including Germany, France and Greece) for comparative purposes. It will draw upon two concepts in particular: ‘responsibilisation’ and ‘protoprofessionalism’, the first undermining medical dominance the latter reinforcing it. The ongoing influence of a neo-liberal and managerialist ag…
Introduction
English The four articles following this introduction originated from the 7th International Research Conference on Dilemmas for Human Services. The articles cover a range of topics which illuminate some of the problems associated with the concept of governance and New Public Management (NPM). While the problem of governance has led to more flexible relationships between government and the governed, for example through Third Way dialogues or the S…
Post-New Public Management in public sector hospitals? The UK, Germany and Italy
Archetype Transition in the German Health Service? The Attempted Modernization of Hospitals in a North German State
In this paper, we argue that, rather than aiming at universal contingency relationships, archetype theory needs to go down a path where ‘local variants’ can be discovered and understood by relating them to their organizational and institutional context(s). The case study of a public sector hospital group in a North German state (Hamburg) is drawn on here to elaborate the argument. We found evidence for a change from a Public Sector hospital arche…

Managing Doctors and Saving a Hospital
This article examines the changing configuration of professional-management relations within the English health service, focusing on hospital doctors and managers. It draws on a case study of a hospital apparently under threat of closure during a period when management is pursuing a policy of attempting to rationalize medical work, for example, by expanding day surgery. At the same time, the strategies of medical staff for the defence of their pr…

Managers, Doctors, and Culture
Much contemporary writing on organizational culture overstresses consensus. Using a case study of a UK National Health Service district, it is suggested that there can be distinctframes of meaning within one organization. Managers' ideas about creating a unified culture were reflective of an attempt to move from medical dominance to a managerialist orientation, but this change was the subject of considerable dispute. There was debate about whethe…
Professionalism, Educated Labour and the State
This article examines the degree to which doctors, as members of an autonomous profession, function as organic intellectuals within capitalist society (Abercrombie and Urry, 1983) and, more generally, the complex and ambivalent relations that sustain their role within a ‘service class’. It is in this context that the organization of medical care and its delivery in Britain will be addressed. In particular, the current and intended changes in the …
Organisation and change in renal work
Renal units exist primarily to dialyse patients with end stage renal failure (ESRF) and to train them to dialyse themselves. An important aspect of the care of renal patients is the regular monitoring and recording of their condition by the nurses and doctors. In consequence, the renal units possess an extensive set of records on each of their dialysis patients. This paper reports on a study of two renal units and the consequences of the introduc…
