Abstract:
Abstract Managerialism which has created its own language is the latest development in the history of management. This history began in factory administrations during the rise of industrial capitalism. With the move from feudalism to capitalism, manufacturing workshops and early factories had to administer a growing number of workers. Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, workers have found industrial employment commonly under rather horrific conditions and in what William Blake called as Dark Satanic Mills. By the early twentieth century, Frederic Taylor (1911), Henri Fayol (1916) and Henry Ford (1920) have changed capitalism and its factories. Simultaneously, Fayol and Ford had legitimised what is known today as management. Fayol’s fourteen basic principles of management are a possible way to distinguish between management and Managerialism. These are: (1) division of work; (2) managerial authority; (3) discipline; (4) unity of command; (5) unity of direction; (6) subordination of individual interest; (7) fair remuneration; (8) centralisation and decentralisation; (9) line of authority from top-management to the lowest ranks; (10) organisational order; (11) equity; (12) stability of tenure; (13) initiative; and (14) esprit de corps.
