BULLSHIT JOBS - DAVID GRAEBER KARTONIERT (TB)

Back in 1930  the economist John Maynard Keynes prophesied that by the century's end 
technology would see us all working fifteen-hour weeks. 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.
