Myth, Meaning and Work Organization
探讨工作组织如何取代教会成为人们意义的主要来源,分析科学和技术对传统神话的挑战,并评估新兴神话形式对当代人类与社会组织理解的冲击。
The 'work organization' has, for many, come to replace the Church in dictating the meanings by which people are expected to structure their social action. This paper describes the function of myth in human life, the challenge to traditional mythologies through the emergence of science and technology and how the new order of organizational ideologies and myths fail to provide the integration necessary for life adjustment. The argument for the current emergence of a new form of mythology, one which challenges contemporary understandings of human beings and social organiza tion, is assessed.
