But instead, something curious happened. Today, average working hours have not decreased, but increased. And now, across the developed world, three-quarters of all jobs are in services or admin, jobs that don't seem to add anything to society: bullshit jobs. In Bullshit Jobs, David Graeber explores how this phenomenon - one more associated with the 20th-century Soviet Union, but which capitalism was supposed to eliminate - has happened. In doing so, he looks at how we value work, and how, rather than being productive, work has become an end in itself; the way such work maintains the current broken system of finance capital; and, finally, how we can get out of it.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003c\/section\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ctime datetime=\"2022-10-20\"\u003ePublished: 09\u003cspan id=\"P1201_VERSCHIJNINGSDATUM\" class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003e\/06\/2024\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/time\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eISBN: 9780141983479\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLength: 368 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDimensions: \u003cspan id=\"P1201_FORMAAT\" class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003e198 x 129 x 26\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003eWeight: 274g\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cspan class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003eState: Slightly used\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003eTh\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"display_only apex-item-display-only\"\u003ee book is in very good condition, has some very minor signs of use on the cover.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Bookworm","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54018061271377,"sku":null,"price":8.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0914\/7020\/1169\/files\/PXL_20260609_100919959.MP.jpg?v=1781100660","url":"https:\/\/thebookworm.eu\/products\/bullshit-jobs-1","provider":"The Bookworm","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
