The Romans adopted many of the achievements of Greek civilization and made great use of its artists and scholars throughout the Roman Empire. Greek dancers found themselves addressing a wider audience, spread over a large area, constituting various peoples, in most part not understanding their language. Not bound anymore to the moral and aesthetic precepts of the small Greek city, they turned to easy tricks to please their patrons: dances became burlesque, lascivious, comic or frightening. The unity that characterized the Greek notion of musike, comprising song, dance and instrumental music in one whole, was fragmented into separate parts of the performance. Song remained in Greek language for some time, sung by a passive chorus as an interlude. Music became independent by the addition of several instruments to the lyre and flute, so as to form a little orchestra.

Top managers in participatory firms normally support participation, whereas middle managers and supervisors have proved to be more sceptic towards the issue. Unionists generally favour forms of representation, while they reject schemes involving the distribution of company shares to workers. Finally, workers have appealed to participation only temporarily, mostly when confronted with the impending bankruptcy of their firm. For the participation process to advance, the education of the ones involved in human relations issues seems to be necessary.
