Abstract

In the context of present capitalist societies, the book seeks philosophical reflections on new forms of domination, vulnerabilities and alienation in social relations of work. Following Hannah Arendt, who viewed labor and work as world-building activities, the book addresses the issues pertaining to the crisis of labor/work and loneliness as a political problem of exclusion and meaninglessness.
