The next school is that of Syndicalism, which, curiously enough, was really in its origin a British conception evolved in the revolutionary phase of the Chartist movement, but afterwards touched up and elaborated by Continental Socialists, especially in France, as by G. Sorel. Under this system, the private owner would be evicted by the workers, who would form some consolidated body, usually in the shape of an industrial Union, including all persons concerned in the operation of the industry, and that body would carry on the industry solely in the interests of the workers. Possession of the industry would be secured by the workers seizing the political power in the State, or, as is more generally advocated, by direct pressure of such a kind, in the form of a general strike or otherwise, as would enable the workers in all industries by concerted action to seize the means of production. Regarding, as the Syndicalist does, the capitalist as an idle and useless parasite who battens on the labour of the workers, no compensation would be paid to owners. The Syndicalist has not quite made up his mind whether he will include the technical and administrative staff in the industrial Union which will own and operate each industry, nor has he worked out the relation to the State of individual industries or industry as a whole.[3] Most Syndicalists assume that the State and its legislative, administrative and executive organizations, as we know it, will cease to function and come to an end under a syndicalistic regime, and that the country will be governed by some organization representing the workers as a whole. Except amongst certain revolutionary elements, Syndicalism has not a strong hold on British labour. National Guildism
