We have summarized here the essential of this book by the author. WORK GIVES A MAN DIGNI. WHAT?Illegible realities and fragmented stories in the connection of the subjects with the labor activityWORK WAS FOR CENTURIES THE MOST IMPORTANT FACTOR IN THE FORMATION OF PEOPLE'S IDENTITY; the career path organized people's stories about their past, their present and their future project. But what we know as "work" is an invention of Modernity, by the Industrial Revolution, by industrial capitalism.
BOTH HEGEL AND MARX SAW IN WORK THE ESSENTIAL ACTIVITY OF MAN and not a simple means of subsistence. Thus, for Hegel, work takes man out of the state of nature and, although he has contradictions, finally frees him. In Marx, labor under capitalism alienates the exploited worker forced to sell his labor power: his labor and the product of his labor do not belong to him because he sells it to the capitalist.
Man becomes a human commodity and is dehumanized.
