By skilfully unpicking the political economy of contemporary work and its futures, this book mounts a forceful critique of the post-work society vision. \u003cbr\u003e Dinerstein and Pitts reveal that transitional measures towards a world beyond work do not do enough to break away from the key features of capitalist society, and instead potentially stifle the capacity for transformative social change. Proposing an innovative alternative, the authors envision the construction of 'concrete utopias' that shape and anticipate non-capitalist futures.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAna Cecilia Dinerstein \u003c\/b\u003eis a Reader in Sociology at the University of Bath. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eFrederick Harry Pitts\u003c\/b\u003e is a Lecturer in Management at the University of Bristol.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 232\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.6 x 7.8 x 5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e January 15, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48874605117689,"sku":"9781787691469","price":32.74,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/9qiG5owZTZ9781787691469.webp?v=1787326647","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/a-world-beyond-work-labour-money-and-the-capitalist-state-between-crisis-and-utopia-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
