L' autre Moitié du Monde

Paul Magnette's book explores the complex relationship between work and society, examining how work shapes individual and collective identity. It critiques the right-wing rhetoric that glorifies work while undermining workers' rights, and challenges the left to reclaim work as a central value. Magnette argues for a re-politicization of work, emphasizing the need for social and political interventions to address work-related suffering. He offers proposals to align work with personal and societal aspirations, particularly in the context of ongoing technological and energy transitions. The book is aimed at readers interested in political theory, labor issues, and social justice.
