Resumen
PAGURA, Nicolás Germinal. The limits of a reduced concept of work: critical notes from the genealogy proposed by Dominique Méda. Sig. Fil [online]. 2018, vol.20, n.39, pp.34-59. Epub 07-Mar-2022. ISSN 1665-1324.
In a book called Work: A Vanishing Value, Dominique Méda proposes a genealogy of the concept of work since its invention in the eighteenth century. From this perspective, and considering the contemporary tendencies towards the automatization of productive processes, she maintains, following Habermas, the need to discharge the excessive utopian energies that were deposited upon work. The purpose of this article is to explain how this approach entails the acceptance of a concept of work reduced to mere productive factor and to make some critical comments regarding the ethical-political consequences of this reduction of the concept.
