But what was once an integral part of life has slowly morphed into a painful and meaningless routine, colonising almost every part of our lives. As our society is transformed into a factory that never sleeps, work becomes a universal reference point for everything else, devoid of moral or social worth. Blending theory with accounts of job-related suicides, office-induced paranoia, fear of relaxation, managerial sadism and cynical corporate social responsibility campaigns, Fleming provides a damning report on the way work consumes our lives in modern capitalist society. -- from back cover.Work environmentSocial aspectsCapitalismSocial aspectsIndustrial sociologyLaborWorkNeoliberalismWorkPolitical aspectsHuman capitalWork environmentSocial aspects.CapitalismSocial aspects.Industrial sociology.Labor.Work.Neoliberalism.WorkPolitical aspects.Human capital.306.36Fleming P(Peter),1972-1700724MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910820637903321The mythology of work4103078UNINA
