Abstract: | This paper addresses the roles of accounting within one of the most extensive programs of advanced manufacture undertaken by an American corporation. Three distinct levels of analysis are pursued: (1) the profound alterations that were to be effected in the identity and mode of operation of a key assembly plant, and in the ordering of its manufacturing spaces, (2) the hopes and ideals for advanced manufacture and for American competitiveness, and (3) the links formed between this ambitious program of plant renewal and the various appeals to a "new economic citizenship" that have become prevalent in debates on advanced manufacture. |
