by Samuel J. R. Mercer (Author)
The Ideology of Work is an unflinching critique of theoretical humanism and how it has undermined our analysis of work.
In On the Reproduction of Capitalism, Louis Althusser cited an appendix which, it seems, remains lost or was never completed - it was titled 'the Ideology of Work'. Samuel J.R. Mercer takes this appendix as his starting point to think about what is at stake for both Marxism and sociology in analyzing work from an Althusserian perspective. Drawing on contemporary discourses about post-work, social reproduction and the Anthropocene, Mercer argues that theoretical humanism has become the dominant form of the ideology of work. The book shows that only a theoretical anti-humanism, grounded in Althusserian Marxism, can offer a viable path forward for the sociology of work and give us a better understanding of social relations under contemporary capitalism.

A small yet very thoughtful devotional book. A beautiful way to promote seeing God everyday in everything.
My gift was loved.
Bought as a gift for someone who worked on dams. They loved it. Great resource book. Very big and all inclusive.
Made a few things so far and like the book. Im single and like the ease of a one bowl meal.
