Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Originally published in 1968, Work and Community asks: can people participate in the decisions affecting their daily work and develop their potentialities for true growth under conditions of a cybernated technology Can work again become a meaningful part of life To answer these questions, the author has examined one of the most significant attempts to find a new way in industry - the Scott Bader Commonwealth in Wollaston, a resin manufacturing company owned by those working in it. The work describes how the Commonwealth, inspired by a Christian witness and developing in a highly competitive situation, has built various channels of participation based on the principle of common ownership and the division of tasks according to legislative, executive, judicial and trustee functions.The book is the result of several years of intensive research based on intensive interview-conversations, group work and participant observation. The critical exploration of the significance of the Commonwealth is related to a careful analysis of basic problems of work and its organization. These problems are seen in the perspective of daily life and in terms of such fundamental concepts underlying every organization of work as time, balance and the nature of man. The changes in attitudes and awareness necessary to move from the present towards the realization of Commonwealth ideals in a genuinely human organization of work are indicated.The Scott Bader Commonwealth is still going strong today.…
