The Dignity of Labour - In Conversation with Jon Cruddas

The Dignity of Labour - In Conversation with Jon Cruddas

Does work give our lives purpose, meaning and status? Or is it a tedious necessity soon to be abolished by automation, leaving humans free to enjoy a life of leisure and basic income? Jon Cruddas' essential book tackles these fundamental questions for our economy and society. Join me as I discuss with Jon his theory about the role of work in social democratic parties such as the British Labour Party and the Australian Labor Party. You can find out more about The Dignity of Labour here.
