A World Beyond Work? : Labour, Money and the Capitalist State Between Crisis and Utopia /

This book mounts a forceful critique of fashionable thinking on the possibility of a post-work, post-capitalist society achieved through automation, a basic income and the reduction of working hours to zero, suggesting this popular utopia is nothing of the sort.
