| Summary | "The Personal Relation in Industry" by John D. Rockefeller, Jr. is a collection of essays and addresses focused on industrial relations, written in the early 20th century. The work discusses the dynamics between labor, capital, management, and the community in the context of cooperation and partnership within the industrial framework, emphasizing the necessity of personal relationships among the parties involved. Rockefeller explores the historical evolution of industry and argues for collaborative solutions to industrial unrest. The opening of the text addresses the relevance of cooperation amidst the complicated challenges that society faces, particularly in post-war contexts. Rockefeller sets the stage by discussing the dwindling personal connections in industry, illustrating how the shift to larger corporations has fostered misunderstanding and distrust between workers and employers. He advocates for redefining the relationship between labor and capital as one of partnership rather than contention, suggesting that through empathy, mutual respect, and the establishment of equitable representation, a more harmonious and productive industrial environment can be achieved.
