Chamberlain offers a range of strategies that will allow us to uncouple our deepest human values from the notion that worth is generated only through labor.
James A. Chamberlain is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Mississippi State University.
"Undoing Work, Rethinking Community moves with ease and elegance from political speech to scholarly debates to popular journalism to career-counseling discourses, drawing on the rich array of materials that our current social order offers. James A. Chamberlain advances a single and refreshingly simple thesis: the measure of good citizenship in our ‘work society’ is ‘gainful employment,’ and this significantly undermines both liberty and equality."
Arne L. Kalleberg, author of Good Jobs, Bad Jobs:
"In Undoing Work, Rethinking Community, James A. Chamberlain asserts that the assumption of paid employment being the basis for citizenship and community is detrimental to freedom, equality, and social justice. His command and synthesis of the writings of important theorists is impressive."
