The Future of Work and Other Essays (Classic Reprint) ~ Paperback ~ Leo George Chiozza Money

Excerpt from The Future of Work and Other Essays These essays are mainly devoted to phases of the industrial problem. The paucity of output by our competitive system, after more than a century of production by power, is demonstrated, and an attempt is made to outline an industrial system calculated to yield a full harvest to Science while securing for the individual, albeit in an organised society, a maximum of personal liberty. The conception of and argument for The Great State - that the whole of the adult population should be organised to produce a high minimum standard of life, and that such organisation would yield to the whole community not only the materials of such a standard but a quality and degree of leisure and liberty at present undreamed of have been already given to the world by a body of writers under the editorship of Mr. H.G. Wells, and part of the essay entitled "The Future of Work," which appears in this volume, has been before published.
