Abstract

Decision-making in the workplace was traditionally regarded in capitalist countries as a prerogative of the employers and little was done in practice to share it with the workers, in spite of the development of political and social democracy. That traditional view was later systematized and vested with scientific justification, as exemplified by such pioneering classics as The Principles of Scientific Management by F. W. Taylor (1911) and General and Industrial Management by H. Fayol (originally published in French in 1916).
