Description: In the realm of safety management this book embarks on a profound exploration of how the political economy was reshaped in the last two decades. Much like privatization deregulation and financialization altered the economic landscape this narrative unveils how safety management has been affected by the intertwined dynamics of asset underinvestment privatization self - regulation workplace flexibilization and market - driven policies. This book the second installment of a thought - provoking trilogy on the consequences of neoliberalism mirrors the political economy's promotion of the private sector's role in the economy. Just as neoliberalism amplified and accelerated the mechanisms of human - made disasters in complex systems this narrative lays bare the heightened potential for safety misfortunes when governed by market - driven principles. As the story unfolds the book delves into the concept of 'synoptic legibility in safety management akin to how the political economy distilled its essence into privatization and deregulation. The authors scrutinize the consequences of translating safety measures into rigid targets unveiling how this shift can distort the integrity of safety metrics and inadvertently harm individuals. Drawing parallels with historical blunders such as England's window tax the book contemplates the precarious nature of equating simplified metrics with safety achievements. Much like the political economy's 'acceptable risk renegotiations it examines how the pursuit of safety through metrics and surveillance can lead to 'manufactured insecurity eroding trust autonomy and professionalism. In Random Noise Poole and Dekker extend this reach once again writing for all managers board members organization leaders consultants practitioners researchers lecturers students and investigators curious to understand the genuine nature of organizational and safety performance.
