CHAPTER ONE

THE WAR FOR THE INDUSTRIAL
SOCIETY
THIS war is being fought for the structure of industrial
society -- its basic principles, its purposes, and its insti­
tutions. It has one issue, only one: the social and politi­
cal order of the entirely new physical reality which
Western man has created as his habitat since James Watt
invented the steam engine almost two hundred years ago.

Nothing shows this more clearly than the fact that this
is the first war really to be fought as an industrial war
-- as a war in which industry is not an auxiliary but the
main fighting force itself. Any peace following this war
must be an industrial peace -- a peace in which industry
is not just on the periphery of the peacetime social or­
ganization but is its center. For it is a law of political
life that the peacetime and the wartime organizations of
society must be based on the same principles and fol­
low the same structural rules. At one time it may be war
that creates, or at least crystallizes, the new society; at
another, peace. The question which comes first is one of
the oldest -- and one of the most idle -- speculations of

CHAPTER TWO

WHAT IS A FUNCTIONING
SOCIETY?
WE DO not today have a functioning industrial society.
We have a magnificent technical machine for industrial
production, built and run by engineers, ohemists, and
skilled mechanics. We have a considerably weaker but
still very impressive economic machine for the distribu­
tion of industrial goods. Politically and socially, how­
ever, we have no industrial civilization, no industrial
community life, no industrial order or organization. It is
this absence of a functioning industrial society, able to
integrate our industrial reality, which underlies the
crisis of our times.

The physical reality in which live the overwhelming
majority of the five hundred million people on the Euro­
pean and North American Continents is that of an in­
dustrial world. Few of us could live a single day without
the products, services, and institutions of the industrial
system. Everything in our lives which relates to the rou­
tine of living is shaped and determined by it. Most of us
depend upon it directly or indirectly for our livelihood

CHAPTER THREE

THE MERCANTILE SOCIETY OF
THE NINETEENTH CENTURY
THE Western world in the 150 years before the last war
undoubtedly had a functioning society -- a society which
integrated its members in a common social purpose, and
which was ruled by legitimate power. It was not only a
functioning, it was a free, society; and no society can
possibly be free unless it functions. But in every respect
the nineteenth-century society was not an industrial so.
ciety. Though it actually succeeded in mastering an
ever-growing industrial reality, it was never intended
and never organized for such a task. In origin, aims,
beliefs and institutions, the nineteenth-century society
was preindustrial, if not anti-industrial.

Although our civilization became increasingly one of
industrial cities during the nineteenth century, our so­
cial forms remained those of a rural society supporting
and surrounding trading towns. It was a mercantile so­
ciety -- commercial yet still rural. We actually tried to
shut out the industrial reality from our social lives. It
appeared to us as sordid, as unrefined and as something

CHAPTER FOUR

THE INDUSTRIAL REALITY OF
THE TWENTIETH CENTURY

THE representative social phenomena of the industrial
system of our time are the mass-production plant and the
corporation. The assembly line is the representative ma­
terial environment; the corporation is the representative
social institution. The large-scale plant has taken the
place of the rural village or of the trading town of the
eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. The corpora­
tion has replaced the manor and the market as the basic
institution in and through which the material reality is
organized socially. And corporation management has
become the decisive and representative power in the in­
dustrial system.

The corporation is usually considered an economic
institution. But what economic function does the corpo­
ration fulfill that could not just as well be discharged
by a partnership? The creation of credit requires a bank.
But whether a big plant is individually or corporately
owned makes no difference in its productivity, its eco­

CHAPTER FIVE

THE CHALLENGE AND THE
FAILURE OF HITLERISM

THE emergence of Hitlerism has made the development
of a functioning industrial society our most vital, most
urgent task. Hitlerism is not only an attempt to create a
functioning industrial society -- an attempt which nearly
succeeded. It is also an attempt to find a new social ideal
as basis of society. And it proceeds from the abandon­
ment of the very freedom to achieve which was the goal
of the mercantile society and the justification of its so­
cial ideal, social institutions and political power.

Viewed as an attempt to create a functioning society,
the Nazi party, the many semi-military organizations
built around it and, finally, the Nazi Army, at once
"make sense" socially. They are the institutions in which
Hitlerism has tried to give the individual social status
and function. There has been a tendency to see in these
institutions nothing but "fronts" to mask the social emp­
tiness of Nazism, or mere disguises for a rearmament
drive at a time when Germany did not yet dare to arm
openly. There is a great deal of truth in either explana­

CHAPTER SIX

FREE SOCIETY AND FREE
GOVERNMENT
SHORTLY before the United States entered this war the
City of New York staged a "freedom rally" under the
slogan: "It's fun to be free." It is unlikely that the
choice of this slogan was dictated by anything more pro­
found than the conviction of those great thinkers, our
modern advertising and propaganda sages, that a "con­
sumers' demand" and a "market" can be created for
ideas in the same way, by the same means, and to the
same end as for lipstick. Yet as a symptom the incident
was important. It illustrates the confusion and the loss
of political sense and understanding which is the great­
est weakness of the free countries today. To say that it
is fun to be free comes close to a repudiation of the real
freedom. The mob of Imperial Rome at least never pre­
tended that circuses and freedom were identical. It had
the courage to admit that it preferred circuses.

Freedom is not fun. It is not the same as individual
happiness, nor is it security or peace and progress. It is
not the state in which the arts and sciences flourish. It is

CHAPTER SEVEN

FROM ROUSSEAU TO HITLER

IT is almost an axiom in contemporary political and
historical literature that our freedom has its roots in
the Enlightenment and the French Revolution. So gen­
eral is this belief, so complete its acceptance, that the
descendants of the eighteenth-century rationalists have
pre-empted for themselves the very name of Liberty in
their designation as Liberals.

It cannot be denied that the Enlightenment and the
French Revolution contributed to the freedom of the
nineteenth century. But their contribution was entirely
negative; they were the dynamite that blew away the
debris of the old structure. In no way, however, did they
contribute to the foundation of the new structure of
freedom on which the nineteenth-century order was
built. On the contrary: The Enlightenment, the French
Revolution, and their successors down to the rationalist
Liberalism of our days are in irreconciliable opposition
to freedom. Fundamentally, rationalist Liberalism is
totalitarian.

And every totalitarian movement during the last two

CHAPTER EIGHT

THE CONSERVATIVE COUNTER­
REVOLUTION OF 1776

JUST as popular and just as fallacious as the belief
that the Enlightenment fathered nineteenth-century free­
dom is the belief that the American Revolution was
based on the same principles as the French Revolution,
and that it was actually its forerunner. Every history
book in the United States or in Europe says so; and
not a few of the chief actors both in the American and
French Revolutions shared the belief. Yet it is a com­
plete distortion of all facts.

The American Revolution was based on principles
completely contrary to those of the Enlightenment and
the French Revolution. In intention and effect it was a
successful countermovement against the very rationalist
despotism of the Enlightenment which provided the
political foundation for the French Revolution. Though
the French Revolution happened later in time, it had
politically and philosophically been anticipated by the
American Revolution. The conservatives of 1776 and
1787 fought and overcame the spirit of the French

CHAPTER NINE

A CONSERVATIVE APPROACH

IF the free industrial society is to be developed in a
free, nonrevolutionary, nontotalitarian way, there is
only one country that can do it today: the United States.

That the twentieth century is to be the "American
Century" has recently become a popular catch phrase in
the United States. It is certainly true that the United
States can never again afford not to engage in power
politics, not to develop lasting strategic concepts, not to
determine where her strategic and military borders lie
and which territories cannot be allowed to fall under
the control of a potential enemy. It is also certain that
both traditional American attitudes toward foreign af­
fairs are obsolete, if not defunct. Both isolationism and
interventionism assumed implicitly that the United
States can decide whether she wants to be a participant
in international affairs or not. Now that the United
States has become the central power of the Western
world, if not of the whole globe, there is no longer such
a decision. America will have to take a stand whenever
a power tries to assume hegemony on any continent --
