Abstract: Henry Ford was one of the first people to use the assembly-line to the mass production. His achievement had such tremendous influence over modern society that many theorists identify this phase of economic and social history of capitalism as Fordism. Since 1970s, Fordism has given way to post-Fordism, characterized by intensifying globalization. The moment when Fordism changes to post-Fordism involves many other complex changes in the society.
