An enlightening essay on how the nature of work is changing.

Laetitia Vitaud defines "labor" as the experience of work in mass society. Today, in a society ruled by globalization and digital and technological developments, the very notion of "labor" is disintegrating. The contract in which we exchanged some measure of alienation for far larger measure of security has now been broken.
At the same time, another culture has begun to emerge. By describing this shift in the working world, Laetitia Vitaud shows, in lively and accessible prose, how the future lies in rediscovering the values and practices of craftsmanship, calling for a fuller social recognition of these and pointing to ways the law might be adapted to this new working landscape.
