See under Fiction, Y. Zamiatin's We. The "Taylor System" is that of Frederick W. Taylor (1856-1915), author of The Principles of Scientific Management (q.v. under Background). Zamiatin establishes in We a society in which Taylorism is applied to all of human life. See in this Category, C. H. Rhodes on Taylor.
