Abstract
Bernard Harrison is a Professor in the Division of Education at the University of Sheffield. In this paper he examines some problems of meanings and values which can occur with regard to such widely used terms in management discourse as 'power', 'team-work', and 'quality' and does so from both a 'moral law' and a `role-theory' viewpoint. In conclusion he advocates a critical— ethical alternative to narrowly economic versions of educational management.Keywords
