Abstract
Machiavelli is often quoted for his political recommendations to the Prince of Florence in 1513, but HG Wells, in his science fiction novella "The invisible man" (1897), developed the theme of a new power. That of no longer being seen while moving among one's fellow men. Wells led us on to fascinating and difficult subject, the invisibility of a body and the alternative it suggests. The consequences are numerous. If the individual is invisible, moral constraint loses its meaning since the former may indulge in all forms of offenses, crime and mischief. Organizationals sociologists have affirmed that formal organizations can deviate from the rationalist expectations of the firm.
