Abstract

A new social science — the science of the organization of economic administration under socialism — is coming into being before our very eyes, and without asking permission to do so. Although certain lawyers, economists and sociologists are still seeking to demonstrate that only they have the right to resolve these problems, articles and pamphlets on management are appearing on the bookshelves with increasing frequency. Volunteer councils on problems of management are coming into being. Regulations governing "business schools" are being developed, and journals of the early 1920s are being dug out of the archives. We see a validation of Engels' words: the requirements of life are more important to the development of science than the opening of new universities.
