Books by Paul Joyce

Focusing on labour as a cultural phenomenon rather than an economic force, this book offers an assessment of the current situation and an exploration of the policy implications of theoretical conclusions. The authors have also written "Striking Out: Social Work and Trade Unionism, 1970-1985".

Through contemporary case studies of strategic management at work in the US and Europe, this collection shows that it can no longer be seen as a discipline for long term decisions but has become a central feature of the public sector. Individual chapters offer insights into strategic management capabilities at the national and sub-national level.

There are a significant number of people studying or working in public sector management who need a practical guide to the field. Paul Joyce meets this demand by providing the most recent information and the latest developments in strategic management for public services managers.
