Hardcover. While the implementation of evidence-based medicine guidelines is well studied, there has been little investigation into the extent to which a parallel evidence-based management movement has been influential within health care organizations. This book explores the various management knowledges and associated texts apparent in English health care organizations, and considers how the local reception of these texts was influenced by the macro level political economy ofpublic services reform evident during the period of the politics of austerity.The research outlined in this volume shows that very few evidence-based management texts areapparent within health care organizations, despite the influence of certain knowledge producers, such as national agencies, think tanks, management consultancies, and business schools in the industry. Bringing together the often disconnected academic literature on management knowledge and public policy, the volume addresses the ways in which preferred management knowledges and texts in these publicly funded settings are sensitive to the macro level political economy of public services reform,offering an empirically grounded critique of the evidence-based management movement. The book explores the various management knowledges and associated texts apparent in English health care organizations, reflecting on the nature, production, and consumption of management knowledge, and the influence of political economy and changing institutional forms during the period of the politics of austerity.
