Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Making of the Future: Our Social Inheritance Since the Industrial Revolution, there has gone on an organized sacrifice of men to things, a large-scale subordination of life to machinery. During a still longer period, there has been a growing tendency to value personal worth in terms of wealth. To the millionaire has, in effect, passed the royal inheritance of "right divine." Things have been in the saddle and ridden mankind. The cult of force in statecraft has been brought to logical perfection in Prussian "frightfulness." The cult of "profiteering" in business has had a similar goal in the striving for monopoly by ruthless elimination of rivals. Prussianism and profiteering are thus twin evils. Historically they have risen together. Is it not possible they are destined to fall together before the rising tide of a new vitalism?
