Privatization in the United States: Theory and Practice
Jeffrey R. Henig analyzes the intellectual underpinnings of the privatization movement in the United States. He argues that privatization proponents misinterpret the implications of using market mechanisms -- primarily by local governments -- to provide limited public services. This misinterpretation is used to justify their broader, more ideological claims for cutting back the responsibilities of government as a whole.
