Slow incremental corporatist reform can transform social structure without violent shocks

Evidence

But there still remains a way out: the corporative trend, born in strict dependence on such a delicate situation whose essential equilibrium must at all costs be maintained if monstrous catastrophe is to be averted, could yet manage to proceed by very slow and almost imperceptible stages to modify the social structure without violent shocks: even the most tightly swathed baby manages nevertheless to develop and grow. — Antonio Gramsci, Selections from the Prison Notebooks, 1092
