The King's College London cuts and related matters

The scandal at King's College London shows creeping managerialism to be now galloping out of control in true juggernaut fashion. One good thing about the controversy is that it has inspired some nice commentary, especially by Anthony Grafton (his article is now on the NYRB blog) and Iain Pears. As noted in a previous post, there's an excellent piece on related concerns by Simon Blackburn. See also Stefan Collini's article in the TLS last year. Finally, here's a blog with additional links to some of the relevant news coverage.
