Taylored Citizenship State Institutions and Subjectivity

Miller shows how government institutions changed the meaning of American citizenship during the World War II era. He considers the state's role in creating concepts of citizenship and subjectivity by analyzing the application within military and educational institutions of systems of discipline associated with Frederick W. Taylor and scientific management. Miller also explores a neglected aspect of Michel Foucault's concerns about citizenship and subjectivity when examining the power of institutions and bureaucracies in creating and precluding political identities. Of particular interest to scholars and students involved with American political history and theory and the sociology of work/education/war and conflict.Miller, Char Roone is the author of 'Taylored Citizenship State Institutions and Subjectivity', published 0006 under ISBN 9780275972233 and ISBN 0275972232.
