Based on the real- life experiences of its creators, David Simon and Ed Burns, the HBO series The Wire is regarded by some as among the greatest cultural documents of our age. And with good reason. Focused on a single American city, Baltimore, the series drills down into a few major institutions— the police, the school system, municipal politics, the press— and provides an X- ray–like image of their workings and dysfunctions. The series has attracted an international audience because its themes of organizational dysfunction resonate broadly across Western societies.
