Reviews

Chamberlain has given us something rare: not an easy or a comfortable book, but a genuinely radical one. * Autonomy * The book is well worth reading for its clear synthesis of a number of issues and thinkers on topics such as UBI, work, immaterial labour, welfare and flexibility.... In my view, it deserves to be read just for its extended treatment of Andre Gorz's work, which is undeservedly neglected within our discipline. Scholars of alternative organization, in particular, could usefully harness the utopian variant of UBI and the reduction of work without income to consider how organization could develop in the context of voluntary co-operation and in the service of social justice and human flourishing. * Organization Studies * In his comprehensive analysis and evaluation of the social function of work under capitalism, Chamberlain demonstrates repeatedly that even prominent postwork scholars do not escape the remnants of work. Moreover, he provides a reassessment of neoliberalism's regimes of flexibility. * Perspectives in Politics *
