My own scepticism about institutions is well documented, but I didn't expect to see a similar doubt expressed elsewhere. So out of the blue, it seems to me, comes this article from Clark Aldrich. "HBO's 'The Wire' documented and forecasted it. BP's monument in the Gulf to greed and incompetence just visualizes it. The false productivity philosophies of metrics and accountability have created cultures that hugely reward the 'management' of value (read that, zero sum clawing of credit and hollowing out of others' work) rather than the creation of it. Sharp elbows, spinning, and relentless self promotion have become better adaptations and predictors of success than innovation."
