There has been a recent minor resurgence of academic interest in Mary Parker Follett. Chapters on her ideas appear in Kevin Mattson, Creating a Democratic Public (1998) and George Liebmann, Six Lost Leaders: Prophets of Civil Society (2001). A new edition of Follett's book The New State, Group Organization the Solution of Popular Government (1918) appeared in 1998. Since there has been no full-length treatment of Follett and her ideas, and recent work on late-nineteenth- and early-twentieth-century intellectuals and reform has given her little attention, Raffaella Baritono's book is a welcome addition. |
