"Just as industrial society became a society of corporations, it developed into a society of employers and employees. [Moi ici: O mundo do século XX, o mundo de Metropolis, o mundo da eficiência, o mundo da massa] These were two different ways of looking at the same phenomenon, jobs. Almost all economic theories have made, and still make, the same assumption: the employer - employee relationship is necessary to create jobs. We have taken that relationship as given.
...
We should ask whether the current social construct of jobs is inevitable, or whether it is a social artefact that is over 100 years old, and should be redesigned. [Moi ici: Claro que os incumbentes não vão apreciar esta pergunta]
.
Industrial workers used to do as they were told. This now creates a systemic inefficiency. Today, knowledge workers should negotiate solutions in active interaction with their peers. We also used to think that organizations outlived workers. The organization came first, and people served the organization. Today, workers’ careers outlive organizations, profoundly challenging our thinking."
