If one examines the production of industrial sociology for committed convictions concerning the quality of a paradigm, prime position belongs to the mainstream interpretation of the development of labour in capitalism: the opinion that labour is being ever-increasingly subdivided and de-skilled by Taylorism, the “basic conception of capitalist rationalization”. In the words of Kern and Schumann: “Until now every form of capitalist rationalization was based on a notion that regarded human labour as a barrier for production, to be overcome by a maximum of technical automation of the production process. Residual human labour was regarded as a potential source of disruption to be eliminated and controlled by restrictive job design” (KERN/SCHUMANN 1984, p. 19).
