Abstract A Taylorian Turning Point in French Society (1904-1918).
The study of Taylorism colis for new perspectives, ones emphasizing its importance in the history of the production process. In the case of France from 1904 to 1918, Taylorism should be resituated in its then new intellectual and industrial climate characterized by the Americanization of French society, the threat to individuality posed by the rise of mass society, and the emergence of technical authority and a new economy of time. Such an analysis should not, however, be limited to business, for the debate concerning Tay lorism involves productivist values found, since that time, in all social groups. These latter are nevertheless unable to form a coalition influencing productivity policy, except when the state manages to direct them towards necessary compromises.
