Over fifty years ago, Albert Hirschman argued that dissatisfied consumers could either voice complaint or exit when they were dissatisfied with goods or services.

Given government policies over the past decade or more which make exit easier from public providers, this is a timely publication for all those who care about the quality of government services.
