Why Work?

Arguments for the Leisure Society

Herausgeber: Freedom Press, Freedom Press

Beschreibung

"Why Work? is a provocative collection of essays and illustrations by writers and artists from the nineteenth century through to today, dissecting "work," its form under capitalism, and the possibilities for an alternative society. It asks: Why do some of us still work until we drop in an age of vast automated production, while others starve for lack of work? Where is the leisure society that was promised?"--Page 4 of cover.
