Taylor s The Principles of Scientific Management (1911): company could increase efficiency by managing time, breaking tasks down into small parts, and using standardized tools II.A. Cities should use scientific techniques, with experts playing the major roles.

Party bosses controlled the selection of convention delegates and the nomination of candidates.
