具体描述

David Rolfe Graeber (/ˈɡreɪbər/; born 12 February 1961) is a London-based anthropologist and anarchist activist, perhaps best known for his 2011 volume Debt: The First 5000 Years. He is Professor of Anthropology at the London School of Economics.

As an assistant professor and associate professor of anthropology at Yale from 1998–2007 he specialised in theories of value and social theory. The university's decision not to rehire him when he would otherwise have become eligible for tenure sparked an academic controversy, and a petition with more than 4,500 signatures. He went on to become, from 2007–13, Reader in Social Anthropology at Goldsmiths, University of London.

His activism includes protests against the 3rd Summit of the Americas in Quebec City in 2001, and the 2002 World Economic Forum in New York City. Graeber was a leading figure in the Occupy Wall Street movement, and is sometimes credited with having coined the slogan, "We are the 99 percent".

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.

##这绝不是一本戏谑的小品,而是一本包含了深层社会议题和论证过程的严肃书籍,读完这本书,不仅会很大程度上引发读者的同感。更能在读者掩卷后引发其深思。 现在的我会下意识地去思考:自己的工作,以及身边接触到的工作,是书中所指的狗屁工作吗?它带给我的痛苦根源是否与书中...

##用Libby聽到82%棄,並非不喜歡,只是到後面聽不下去了,最後兩章講歷史背景和理論的真的還是應該看文本,而且這個男聲聽到後面有點煩。前面因為大多是testimonies,人聲唸出來很合適,聽的時候不停在心裏點頭「對啊這不就是我嗎!這也是我!」讀這本書起初也只是為了給自己找個支持,畢竟在那麼多相似主題卻不痛不癢的書中,這本真的是股清流。人類學家寫的書就是喜歡,只是下次不聽了⋯⋯ 另外,作者走得太早了,遺憾。

##如何确认自己从事的是 bullshit job 呢,就是把一本叫 Bullshit Jobs: A Theory 的书看完了——2018年出版,作者是伦敦政治经济学院人类学教授、美国人 David Graeber——感觉读了一份自己的体检报告。 这本书源自 Graeber 在 2013 年为 Strike! 杂志写的一篇题为 [On the Phen...
