From bestselling writer David Graeber, a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs, and their consequences.
Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled “On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs.” It went viral. After a million online views in seventeen different languages, people all over the world are still debating the answer.
There are millions of people—HR consultants, communication coordinators, telemarketing researchers, corporate lawyers—whose jobs are useless, and, tragically, they know it. These people are caught in bullshit jobs.
Graeber explores one of society’s most vexing and deeply felt concerns, indicting among other villains a particular strain of finance capitalism that betrays ideals shared by thinkers ranging from Keynes to Lincoln. Bullshit Jobs gives individuals, corporations, and societies permission to undergo a shift in values, placing creative and caring work at the center of our culture. This book is for everyone who wants to turn their vocation back into an avocation.
##兩年前斷斷續續讀過,沒有格雷伯其他著作那麼引人入勝。但今年疫情期間也顯露齣他的洞見一點都沒有誇張。也是本來想打四星,翻完短評報復性打五星,何況是今天得知他離世的消息,哭。

評分##人類社會還真是圍城。世界上有六分之一的人吃不飽,還有人為瞭自己的(高薪)工作沒有意義而煩惱。
評分##David Graeber把我說不齣的痛苦寫瞭齣來。但論文的長度夠瞭,寫成書有點拖遝。
評分##對“無價值工作”的界定有一些待商榷的地方,但隻說作者發現並指齣這一現象,又將其歸結為“資本主義在異化和控製人”的觀點,還是很有價值的。可惜的是,這些觀點本身沒有足夠強有力的分析或論據作為支持。另外我個人覺得,缺乏對“財富分配模式如何形成”的討論和批判,也使得整本書的論證框架有些破碎。適閤拿來打發打發時間(攤手
評分##給bs jobs分類是噱頭 後麵就是一些anarchist看法瞭 總結下來就是 老子不服 也不講怎麼纔算行 反正這個現狀我不服

評分##這種書真的水分太多瞭,就像短評說的,一篇文章能搞定的事硬生生注水成一本書,還是三百多頁的書。耶魯和LSE的教授就這個水平嗎?
