“Nineteenth-century social theory—exemplified in the works of Marx and Weber—teaches us that two great forces have shaped the modern world: the rise and domination of capitalism and the seemingly inexorable rise and power of the bureaucracy. Marx accurately predicted that capitalism would penetrate all corners of the world economy, and Weber gloomily predicted that mankind would be trapped in an “iron cage of his own making from which he could not escape”—and the iron cage was the bureaucracy.” from “Why Should Anyone Work Here?: What It Takes to Create an Authentic Organization” by Rob Goffee, Gareth Jones
