Abstract:
The article explored the role of government accounting technologies (ATGs) associated with UK tax credits and their impact on the motivation, behavior and personality of applicants. The results show that ATGs play a key role in transforming vehicle applicants into self-disciplined “citizen subjects” whose decisions are based on market logic.
