Originally published in 1902. Our Benevolent Feudalism beholds that feudalism has come again, tempered with benevolence and somewhat by fear of assassination and mobs. The feudalism Ghent fears would mean labor "bound to the machine," whether factory or farm, a "dependent class, living in a condition of machine servitude."

The great diversity of social ideals produces a like diversity of social forecasts. All the soothsayers give different readings of the signs. Even those of the same school, who build the future in the light of the same dogmas, differ in regard to particulars of form and structure. How many forecasts of one sort or another have been given us, it is impossible to say. Mr. H. G. Wells, in a footnote to his "Anticipations," complains of their scarcity. "Of quite serious forecasts and inductions of things to come," he says, "the number is very small indeed; a suggestion or so of Mr. Herbert Spencer's, Mr. Kidd's 'Social Evolution,' some hints from Mr. Archdall Reid, some political forecasts, German for the most part (Hartmann's 'Earth in the Twentieth Century,' e.g.), some incidental forecasts by Professor Langley (Century Magazine, December, 1884, e.g.), and such isolated computations as Professor Crookes's wheat warning and the various estimates of our coal supply, make almost a complete bibliography."
