More about the book

André Gorz argues that changes in the role of the work & labor process in the closing decades of the 20th century have, once & for all, weakened the power of skilled industrial workers. Their place has been taken, he says, by social movements such as the women's movement & the green movement, & all those who refuse to accept the work ethic so fundamental to early capitalist societies. Provocative & heretical, Farewell to the Working Class is a classic study of labor & unemployment in the post-industrial world.
