In general, working people are no longer sociologically related to a vision of the social necessity of their work, that of providing for an adequate livelihood in a community. They lack a creative social attitude to their work as being for the good of the community. The result is that workers can no longer be held accountable for the good of the community, and conversely, that the community cannot be held accountable for the livelihood which is its responsibility to them. This blocks the trend toward recovering the role of worker and a new consciousness of work as corporate engagement.
