Abstract

What does it mean to be ready for war? Readiness is more than superior weapons. It is also a cultural milieu that supports warrior values and norms. Privatization policies are implemented within the organizational culture of the warrior. This paper deals with the impact of privatization policies on the culture of an institution.
