Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Vested Interests, and the Common Man, (the Modern Point of View and the New Order) The aim of these papers is to show how and, as far as may be, why a discrepancy has arisen in the course of time between those accepted principles of law and custom that underlie business enterprise and the businesslike management of industry, on the one hand, and the material conditions which have now been engendered by that new order of industry that took its rise in the late 18th century, on the other band; together with some speculations on the civil and political difficulties set afoot by this discrepancy between business and industry.
