The Managerial Revolution by James Burnham Summary
Overview of The Managerial Revolution
In 1941, Burnham predicted the rise of a managerial elite controlling governments and corporations - a thesis that eerily foreshadowed today's technocratic power structures. Cited by political commentators like Saagar Enjeti, this controversial work reveals who truly pulls society's strings.

核心要点
When the Bosses Became Kings
Picture a world where the people who own companies no longer run them. Where wealth doesn't guarantee power. Where a new class of professionals-neither owners nor workers-quietly assumes control of everything from factories to governments. This wasn't science fiction when James Burnham published his analysis in 1941; it was prophecy. George Orwell drew heavily from these ideas for "1984," recognizing something profound: the future wouldn't belong to capitalists or workers, but to managers. Today, as corporate executives shape policy, technocrats dominate governments, and expertise trumps both money and democracy, Burnham's vision feels uncomfortably prescient. Both Steve Bannon and progressive critics cite his work, recognizing a shared reality-we live in a world where technical control matters more than ownership. The question isn't whether this happened, but why we didn't see it coming.
