Krátky popis
LONGLISTED FOR THE FINANCIAL TIMES AND SCHRODERS BUSINESS BOOK OF
THE YEAR 2024A NEW STATESMAN BOOK OF THE YEAR 2024'A great book ...
a wonderful way of talking about our current world' Rory
Stewart'Mischievous and fiercely intelligent' Ed Smith, New
Statesman'One of the most insightful books I've read in a long
time' Sam Freedman'The kind of book from which you look up to find
the world suddenly more comprehensible' Guardian'One of the most
useful books of 2024' EconomistWhen we avoid taking a decision,
what happens to it? In The Unaccountability Machine, Dan Davies
examines why markets, institutions and even governments
systematically generate outcomes that everyone involved claims not
to want. He casts new light on the writing of Stafford Beer, a
legendary economist who argued in the 1950s that we should regard
organisations as artificial intelligences, capable of taking
decisions that are distinct from the intentions of their
members.Management cybernetics was Beer's science of applying
self-regulation in organisational settings, but it was largely
ignored - with the result being the political and economic crises
that that we see today. With his signature blend of cynicism and
journalistic rigour, Davies looks at what's gone wrong, and what
might have been, had the world listened to Stafford Beer when it
had the chance.
