520 3 _aFundamental "purposes" of Australian police organizations are examined, not with a view organizations are examined, not with a view to solving the complex and a ongoing question of an accountable police mandate, but to consider the difficulty of its reconciliation wiht the new managerialims sweeping numerous public organizations in Autralia - police organizations included. Briefly explores the purposes of policing and a problematic police culture as a lead in to a discussion on the possibly deleterious effects of new manageralims and its associated management faddism. Problems associated with the theory of managerialism, which police managers may not be aware of, are explored: manageralism and economic rationalism; management fads and tool tropism; manageralism as a thinly veiled control agenda; and the potencial human costs to police officers arising from manageralist approaches. Suggestions are made for ways forward for police organizations wich include a recognition of the down-side of manageralism and a sugested shift way from a belief in a purely rationalistc organization to one which recognizes and accomodates an actor`s "voice" as a legitimate input to growth, learning and institucional development
