workingclasshistory:

On this day, 20 March 1856, engineer Frederick Taylor was born in Philadelphia. He was the founder of “Scientific Management,” often known as Taylorism, which was a scheme to improve workers’ efficiency and break up workers’ solidarity. It was adopted widely both in the West and by Lenin, Trotsky and later Stalin in the Soviet Union.
