Capitalism
This book is a short collection of essays by Andre Gorz previously published elsewhere and generally dating to the early nineties. Without presenting a challenging theoretical read, it presents Gorz's view that the next step for progressives is to reduce the commodification of society. Reducing the grip of work over our lives by taking control of productivity improvements to reduce working time. Gorz makes the case for one form of universal basic income. He is also ahead of his time, his discussion of the nature and impact of precarious work prefigures the rise of the gig economy. Despite being 30 years old, this book has a lot to say about the state of the modern economy and the possible routes out of where we are.
