Abstract
Few things more actually proved the truth of this law than Japanese industrial society after the World War II. I shall follow the trace of working intention changes, from the period immediately after the last war when food living was in imminent danger to the paresent time when people became to be able to enjoy culture life to some extent, analysing the ten years into five part periods.
The first period : 1945-1946
Animal-like, food-wishing period. In this period true working intention (will to work) did not exist and only need for existance-egoistic desire to eat-prevailed.
The second period : end of 1946-end of 1947
The period when human and cultural demand began to recover and sprout. In this period demand progressed from animal grade to human one. The signs of recovery of working intention began to appear with gradual reconstruction of industrial world, but demand for higher wages in compensation for labor was exceedingly egoistic.
The third period : 1948-1950
The period when requirement for working conditions as well as for wages began to be conscious of. In this period the improvement of working conditions and requirements regarding adjustment of the social conditions in the workship together with for wages was considered, according to gradual recovery of industrial world and worker's living standard.
The forth period : 1951-1952
The period when requirement for inherent conditions of labour was generalized. In this period demand for higher wages did not decline as before and inherent conditions of labour and requirement for adjustment of Human Relation, Job Relation etc. were strengthened and proposition of improvement for them was generalized.
The fifth period. 1953-
The period when requirement for rational distribution and persuit for other profit besides wages began to be considered. Because of standstill of Japanese industry the problem of base-up became impossible or hopeless, so demend for higher wages rised up again and wishes for inner rationality and other profit besides wages appeared.
Saying in other words, workers require their reasonable wages in compliance with their labor accomplishments, and on the other hand their hand they tried to acquire the stability and elevation of their living. That the requirement for public welfare is rapidly rising endorses this tendency.
As above mentioned we may say that working intention after the world War II was chiefly influenced and ruled dy industrial, social conditions and pre-modern, animal-like wishes for existance. In this sense the present state of working intention in our industrial world does not yet come back to a satisfactory situation. Therefore, thouge workers require rational distribution, still they wish in another way much more distribution, neglecting their accomplishments, and expect their fleeting enjoyment of profit in common by way of prevention for a standing manace to their living.
Here, we notice a strain, abnormalism of working intention in Japan industrial world, and importance, difficulty of working intention control.
