Summary: "Changing opinions and attitudes are often revealed in the increased use of a word. What was once a simple descriptive term may become a watchword, fraught with emotion and value connotations. Such seems to have been the case with decentralized management. Decentralization has come to mean not just a movement away from centralization, but improved industrial organization, efficient operations, and forward looking management. More often that not it has been used to imply all-out decentralization, without differentiation in its practical application to different management functions." -- from introduction.
