Viac o knihe

The book examines the evolution of work through the lens of time autonomy, highlighting its transformation from 19th-century efforts to reclaim time from employers to contemporary discussions on flexible work arrangements. By analyzing case studies from France, Germany, and China, it reveals how tools like flexitime and telecommuting have aligned employee needs with production demands since the late 1960s. The comparative perspective sheds light on the varying conditions, opportunities, and risks associated with time autonomy in diverse workplaces and socioeconomic contexts.
