The Big Con: How the Consulting Industry Weakens our Businesses, Infantilizes our Governments and Warps our Economies by Rosie Collington, Mariana Mazzucato

4.0

Many illustrative examples on why market-oriented governmental policies fail the democracy. Of many cases involving Big-3 and Big-4 companies I have read for the first time (though admittedly I wasn't that involved in the late years). Good policy advice. I feel it lacked in-depth overall analysis on overspendings, harm done, price per value or a comparison with governments who don't rely heavily on international consultants (Germany?).
