Working Title. Representations of Identity and Postmodern Work in Mike Judge's "Office Space"

More about the book

The analysis focuses on "Office Space," highlighting its cult status as a parody of postmodern work and critique of late twentieth-century corporate management. Despite being filmed in 1999, the themes remain relevant as they explore the pressures of contemporary management and the struggle for employees to find purpose in their work. The thesis emphasizes how paid labor continues to shape individual identity, making the film's commentary on workplace dynamics increasingly significant in today's context.
