Documentary abstract — original language
This chapter illuminates the role of ideology in “the ideology of managerialism”. It starts with an historical overview by Antoine Destutt de Tracy who coined it in the year 1796. At the time, ideology was seen as something positive. But with Napoleon and later Marx, ideology increasingly carried negative connotations. Ever since this time, ideology serves three basic functions: it camouflages the many contradictions of capitalism; it supports domination like that of managers over workers; and finally, ideology seeks to prevent the emancipation of those entrapped in oppressive structures ensured by the chain of command . To secure this, ideologies of organisational culture, a manipulated version of morality, and organisational commitment are used. In the field of management studies, the ideology of managerialism masks the field's lack of critique. This has been assigned to critical management studies . The chapter also shows why Critical Management Studies experts and prophets of managerialism use a specific jargon to pretend that their MBA-certified knowledge is superior. Finally, the lack of theory in management studies also needs to be cloaked just as the fact that management is an institution of domination. All of this means that ideology is necessarily a part of managerialism.
