Matthew Arnold. Culture and Anarchy: an essay in Political and Social
Criticism (New York, NY: Macmillan and Co.,1875)

The year was 1867, the year of the Second Reform Bill, which
virtually established the principle of political democracy in
England and made plain how much of the old way of doing
things would have to be given up. This was the year of the
publication of Culture and Anarchy, in which, to a middle class
―besotted with business,‖ Matthew Arnold proposed as a means
of salvation, as a means, indeed, of survival, the knowledge
of the best that has been thought and said in the world.

1875 Lionel Trilling

Society comprised of three kinds of people:
Barbarians (the aristocracy) – with their high spirit,
serenity and distinguished manners and their
inaccessibility to ideas.
Philistines (the great middle class) – the stronghold
of religious nonconformity, with plenty of energy and
morality but insufficient ―sweetness and light.‖
Populace (the masses) – still raw and blind.
1875

Arnold saw in the Philistines the key to the whole
position; they were now the most influential section
of society; their strength was the nation’s strength,
their crudeness its crudeness: Educate and humanize
the Philistines, therefore. Arnold saw in the idea of
―the State,‖ and not in any one class of society, the
true organ and repository of the nation’s collective
―best self.‖

all-inclusive; but nonetheless, it is an attempt at defining the
best business books of all time.

The effort in creating this list is dedicated to all the men and
women who have ever used the written word to try to improve
the human condition, to advance the furtherance of economics
and the social sciences, and to increase the efficiency,
effectiveness, and humanization of business.

I am not unaware that many have held the opinion that events
are controlled by fortune and by God in such a way that the
prudence of men cannot modify them, indeed, that men have
no influence whatsoever. Because of this they would conclude
that there is no point sweating over things, but that one should
submit to the rulings of chance…Some-times, when thinking of this,
I have myself inclined to this same opinion. Nonetheless,
because free choice cannot be ruled out,

I believe that it is probably true that fortune is the arbiter of half
the things we do, leaving the other half or so to be controlled by
ourselves…

Thus it happens that two men, working in different ways, can achieve
the same end, and of two men working in the same way one gets
what he wants and the other does not. This also explains why
prosperity is ephemeral; because if a man behaves with patience and
circumspection and the time and circumstances are such that this
method is called for, he will prosper; but if time and circumstances
change he will be ruined because he does not change his policy…

Adam Smith was, in his own day and his own way something
of a revolutionary. His doctrine revolutionized European society
as surely as Marx’s in a later epoch. He was, on the economic
side, the philosopher of the capitalist revolution, as John Locke
was its philosopher on the political side.

Since a natural order exists whereby the enlightened selfishness
of all men adds up to the maximum good of society, since there
is a ―divine hand‖ (―invisible hand‖) which guides each man in
pursuing his own gain to contribute to the social welfare, it must
follow that government is superfluous except to preserve order
and perform routine functions.

We recognize this, of course, as the unregulated and individualistic
capitalist economy – what Thomas Carlyle has unforgettably
termed ―anarchy plus a constable.‖

The colonists carry with them a knowledge of agriculture and of other
useful arts….They carry out with them too the habit of
subordination, some notion of the regular government which
takes place in their own country, of the system of laws which
support it, and of a regular administration of justice; and they naturally
establish something of the same kind in the new settlement.

Every colonist gets more land than he can possibly cultivate. He
has no rent, and scarce any taxes to pay….He has every motive
to render as great as possible a produce, which is thus to be
almost entirely his own….He is eager, therefore, to collect laborers
and to reward them with the most liberal wages…those laborers
leave and become landlords themselves and to reward, with equal
liberality, other laborers, who soon leave them for the same reason….

The liberal reward of labor encourages marriage. The children…are
well fed and properly taken care of, and when they are grown up,
the value of their labour greatly overpays their maintenance, (which)
enables them to establish themselves in the same manner as their
fathers did before them.

Hegel’s conception of reality sought to relate and unify man and
nature, spirit and matter, human and divine, time and eternity.
At the foundation of Hegel’s thought was his understanding of
dialectic, according to which all things unfold in a continuing
evolutionary process whereby every state of being inevitably
brings forth its opposite. The interaction between these
opposites then generates a third stage in which the opposites
are integrated – at once overcome and fulfilled – in a richer and
higher synthesis, which in turn becomes the basis for another
process of opposition and synthesis.

Children are potentially free and their life directly embodies nothing
save potential freedom. Consequently they are not things and cannot
be the property either of their parents or others. In respect of his
relation to the family, the child’s education has the positive aim of
instilling ethical principles into him in the form of an immediate feeling
for which differences are not yet explicit, so that thus equipped with
the foundation of an ethical life, his heart may live its early years in
love, trust, and obedience.

In respect of the same relation, this education has the negative aim
of raising children out of the instinctive, physical level on which
they are originally, to self-subsistence and freedom of personality
and so to the level on which they have power to leave the natural
unity of the family.

What Managers Do
First. They develop a science for each element of a man’s work,
which replaces the old rule-of-thumb method.

Second. They scientifically select and then train, teach, and develop
the workman, whereas in the past he chose his own work and trained
himself as best he could.

Third. They heartily cooperate with the men so as to insure all of the
work being done in accordance with the principles of the science
which has been developed.

Fourth. There is an almost equal division of the work and the
responsibility between the management and the workmen. The
management take over all work for which they are better fitted than
the workmen, while in the past almost all of the work and the greater
part of the responsibility were thrown upon the men….

To summarize: Under the management of ―initiative and incentive‖
practically the whole problem is ―up to the workman,‖ while under
scientific management fully one-half of the problem is ―up to the
management.‖

It now seems clear that we must look for purpose within the process
itself. We see experience as an interplay of forces, as the activity
of relating leading through fresh relatings to a new activity,
not from purpose to deed and deed to purpose with a fatal gap
between, as if life moved like the jerks of mechanical toys with
only an external wire-puller to account for the jerks,
or a too mysterious psychic energy.

What we possess always creates the possibilities of fresh
satisfactions. The need comes as need only when the possible
satisfaction of need is already there. There is no gap in the process.
The automobile does not satisfy wants only, it creates wants….
The automobile was not invented to solve the farmers’ problems.
The purpose in front will always mislead us. Psychology now gives
us end as moment in process.

The most strategic factor in human cooperation is executive capacity.
In the nature of the physical world and of the social world as well,
opportunity and ideals outrun the immediate motives and interest and
the practical abilities that are required of leaders. The accumulation
of capital, the invention of processes, the innovations of human
relationships that effective and efficient cooperation need as a
preliminary necessity, call for special abilities in the technologies of
materials, physical forces, economic systems, and organization arts.

Organizations endure, however, in proportion to the breadth of the
morality by which they are governed. This is only to say that
foresight, long purposes, high ideals, are the basis for the

First came the design – not of machines but of the plane
as an assembly of identical and interchangeable parts.

problems of organization:
 A problem of people working as members of a team
to a common end.
 A problem of technical processes.

War Production - WWII
On those four pillars rested every achievement of our war production:
 design of the final product as a composite of
interchangeable parts;
 design of the production of each part as a series of
simple repetitive operations;
 design of a plant to integrate human labor, machines
and materials into one whole;
 and training in skills and in teamwork.

―All the greatest and most important problems of life are
fundamentally insoluble…They can never be solved but
only outgrown. This ―outgrowing‖ proves on further
investigation to require a new level of
consciousness…They are not solved logically on their
own terms, but fade when confronted with a new and
stronger life force.‖

The ingenuity and perseverance of industrial management
in the pursuit of economic ends have changed many scientific
and technological dreams into commonplace realities…
…It is now becoming clear that the application of these same
talents to the human side of enterprise will not only
enhance substantially these materialistic
achievements but will bring us
one step closer to ―the good society.‖

Theory Y
1. Management is responsible for organizing the elements of
productive enterprise – money, materials, equipment, people
– in the interest of economic ends.
2. People are not by nature passive or resistant to organizational
needs. They have become so as a result of experience in
organizations.

Theory Y
3. The motivation, the potential for development, the capacity for
assuming responsibility, the readiness to direct behavior toward
organizational goals are all present in people. Management does
not put them there. It is a responsibility of management to make
it possible for people to recognize and develop these human
characteristics for themselves.

Theory Y
1) The expenditure of physical and mental effort in work
is as natural as play or rest.
2) External control and the threat of punishment are not the
only means for bringing about effort toward organizational
objectives. Man will exercise self-direction and self-control
in the service of objectives to which he is committed.
3) Commitment to objectives is a function of the rewards
associated with their achievement.

Theory Y
4) The average human being learns, under proper
conditions, not only to accept but to seek responsibility.
5) The capacity to exercise a relatively high degree of
imagination, ingenuity, and creativity in the solution of
organizational problems is widely, not narrowly,
distributed in the population.
6) Under the conditions of modern industrial life, the
intellectual potentialities of the average human being
are only partially utilized.

Yet, there is a world of difference between compliance and
commitment. The committed person brings an energy, passion, and
excitement that cannot be generated if you are only compliant, even
genuinely compliant. The committed person doesn’t play by ―the
rules of the game.‖ He is responsible for the game. If the rules of the
game stand in the way of achieving the vision, he will find ways to
change the rules. A group of people truly committed to a common
vision is an awesome force.
