This book, first published in 1985, tackles simultaneously three
major questions about the course of industrial evolution: what are
the features of the industrial systems that have developed outside
Western capitalism? What are the salient evolutionary developments
now occurring in all advanced capitalist systems? What light can
social theory throw upon the evolution of industrial systems thus
far and in the future? In answering these questions the author
provides an exposition of how the Soviet system works and how the
Japanese system developed; a critical analysis of three issues of
major contemporary concern - the control of giant corporations, the
impact of automation, and the shift to service employment; and a
commentary on the theories of classical and contemporary social
thinkers. Concluding with his own conceptualisation of the
determinants of industrial evolution, the author also offers his
own evaluation of the needs of the advanced industrial societies.
