Abstract

662 THE AMERICAN JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE LAW [Vol. 26 deadening uniformity, in which due process is principally a tool for flattening and leveling the treatment of everyone in the society, we might pass into a stage at which those who contribute most can de­ mand reasons why they have not been given more rapid advance­ ment or more interesting educations than those who contribute least. Whatever ultimate speculations of this sort might be offered, I remain unconvinced of the reality of the world of sweetness and light that the contributors to this volume rather uniformly envision as following from increases in the giving reasons and participation aspects of organizational life. The basic weakness of this volume is tha t it assumes without demonstrating that decision-making which is reasonable by due process standards would also be rational by whatever standards of rationality one wished to adopt. I think more attention ought to be paid to the question of whether fully due- processed organizations would in fact perform more rationally than those that permit a certain quantum of "arbitrary" decision-making.
