There will be no revolution. Managers in modern societies

Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the place and role of managers in modern societies. The starting point is James Burnham’s concept of the managerial revolution from eight decades ago. However, the author refers to classic concepts in the social sciences and the latest approaches in this field. He tries to prove that there will be no revolution in the management of modern economic organisations. However, he points to several evolutionary changes that have taken place and are still taking place — both in the social and economic structures. Analysing managers in a multidimensional way is possible by combining two perspectives of social reality: micro-sociological and macrosociological.
