Abstract
In this celebration of the first works council we honour something deeper than the work of J. C. Van Marken or his design for a total community to surround and nourish the Nederlandsche Gist- en Spiritusfabriek. We honour the beliefs that lay behind his actions. His trust in human potential was rare then and remains rare among business, political, union, and even educational leaders today. Equally rare was his conviction that all who have a stake in where an enterprise is heading deserve a voice in setting its course.
