Alain Supiot, a renowned specialist in labor law, proposes a political and philosophical discussion on how and why we work today. Facing mercantilist logic, the author defends a model that puts people at the center, guaranteeing protection against unemployment, precariousness, and informality, and paving the way for a new demand for social justice as a driver of change.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book starts from an evident fact: work is no longer what it was. In light of this reality, Alain Supiot analyzes the transformations of employment in a context marked by robotization, artificial intelligence, and job insecurity. Far from techno-scientific promises or the myth of full employment, the author raises the need for a profound discussion on the social value of work. He proposes overcoming the reductionist view that identifies it solely with paid activity, in order to integrate aspects such as lifelong learning, caregiving tasks, and community work. With solid argumentation rooted in law and political philosophy, Supiot defends the principle of equal human dignity linked not only to what one possesses, but to what one does, positioning justice in work as a historical driver of social transformation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eTransformation of work in the digital age and automation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of the commodification of employment and neoliberal logic.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eLabor law and social protection against precariousness and informality.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003ePolitical philosophy of work: dignity, justice, and social change.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eNew models of protection: lifelong learning, caregiving, and community work.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at readers interested in sociology, labor law, political philosophy, and critical economics.
