300148 Lektürekurs zu Michael Powers “The Audit Society: Rituals of Verification” (S) (SoSe 2018)

Contents, comment

Wirtschaftsunternehmen, aber auch Krankenhäuser, Verwaltungen und Universitäten wurden in den letzten 20 bis 30 Jahren zunehmend quantifizierten Leistungsbewertungen mit Steuerungsabsichten unterzogen. Michael Powers ‚The Audit Society: Rituals of Verification’ hat dieses Phänomen genauer analysiert und ist zu einem Klassiker in der Accounting Forschung, aber auch darüber hinaus in Politik- und Sozialwissenschaften geworden. Er beobachtet die Regulierung von Audits, die im Finanzsektor entstehen und schrittweise in alle anderen gesellschaftlichen Teilbereiche exportiert werden und analysiert die Bedingungen, Gründe, Mittel und Folgen der daraus entstehenden Beziehungen zwischen Auditoren, Auditierten und Auftraggebern.

In diesem Lektürekurs wird ‚The Audit Society’ kapitelweise gelesen und im Detail analysiert. Wir behandeln die theoretischen Vorannahmen und Entscheidungen und stellen die Frage nach der Verallgemeinerungsfähigkeit der Vorgehensweise und der Ergebnisse dieses Buches.
