Back in 1930 the economist John Maynard Keynes prophesied that by the century's end technology would see us all working fifteen-hour weeks. But instead something curious happened. Today average working hours have not decreased but increased. And now across the developed world three-quarters of all jobs are in services or admin jobs that don't seem to add anything to society: bullshit jobs. In Bullshit Jobs David Graeber explores how this phenomenon - one more associated with the 20th-century Soviet Union but which capitalism was supposed to eliminate - has happened. In doing so he looks at how we value work and how rather than being productive work has become an end in itself the way such work maintains the current broken system of finance capital and finally how we can get out of it.
