Why we need a post-work future
Postgraduate researcher, Matthew Cole, has written an article published by the Independent which argues that we should be redefining the nature of employment within society.
The article entitled ‘It's possible that we can build a society where people don't have to work – here's how’ suggests a post-work future is one way to combat falling labour productivity and a reduction in real wages since the financial crisis.
Matthew comments: "We need new utopias, and to get there we have to ask the big questions about how we want our lives to be organised, and strive for the future of work we want.”
