The forecast of accelerating change
Ideas
Ad-hocracy. Toffler forecast organizations of temporary, rapidly changing units replacing permanent bureaucracy, and gave the form its name. Caveat: A forecast, not a study, stated from the work's standard reading, since the text was not read.
In this section, “read” means read by the Organizational Structures series: where a line says a work, or part of one, was not read, the series did not read it.
