Follett's unique background often led her to take positions on major issues that mediated between the conventional viewpoints. In The New State, she took the position on societal change that:
> It is a mistake to think that social progress is to depend upon anything happening to the working people: some say that they are to be given more material goods and all will be well; some think they are to be given more "education" and the world will be saved. It is equally a mistake to think that what we need is the conversion to "unselfishness" of the capitalist class."
Likewise, her position on the labor movement was as follows:
> Neither working for someone nor paying someone's wages ought to give you power over them." wikipedia 
# Import
Here we link the table of contents to pages imported on demand ready to be forked into the readers own copy ready to be annotated. archive

# Usage
We imagine a community of readers collaboratively tagging the most relevant parts of this work forking pages as they go. I've created a separate site to try this myself.
This is a new way to import books. We're using tags as the front door into the best parts. See Item Tag Aggregator
We seek first-level patterns in paragraphs that suggest new meaning when viewed together. >> survey tags
# Source
We extracted the text files from the archive and saved them in this asset. We edited the index so that chapters link to these local text files. This became the starting point for the import.html script above. index
