Performe or Else: from discipline to performance. - McKenzie, Jon (London : Routledge, 2001)
Performance has become one of the key terms for the new century. But what do we mean by 'performance'? In today's world it can refer to experimental art, productivity in the workplace, and the functionality of technological systems. McKenzie uncovers an uncanny relationship between cultural, organizational, and technological performance. His explosive conclusion - that performance will be to the twentieth and twenty-first centuries what discipline was to the eighteenth and nineteenth- will shape future inquiries into globalized power and knowledge.
