Reseña del libro "The Ant, the Grasshopper, the Philosopher & the Slave: A novel about the meaning of work & on the direction of the achievement of freedom (en Inglés)"
Man is the only being who, being the "homo sapiens" species, not also features a pre-determination and/or a complete nature and finished itself and, therefore, to not take place for lack of an education quality, it can also be misread what is, failing to "be all that, just being a man, by education, he could and/or may be."In other words, man can, through education, to humanize themselves and, without it, "if-animalize" in the pejorative sense of the word and minimized.In this sense, one of the main forms of animalization man (in Western contemporary capitalist societies) has been through its expropriation (take his property) by selling its actual productive workforce, generating wealth for a very low and/or smallest value, said the labor market.This book, in this way, it will propose, starting from a history (novel) about the changes relating to the meaning of the work (in ancient Greek societies, on average, modern and contemporary age) also demonstrate that even in the Dawn the twenty-first century, the different men in the state of proletarians of Western capitalist societies have been and/or are being transformed, self-consenting (due to the internalization in their psyches Individualist and meritocratic values of capitalism): A-"In wage slaves of capital; B- In irrational beings, through cauterization, in their minds, two great illusions:1-The first, internalizing the idea that the work, the work said wage, menial, in which it has a said boss, is not only the only valid said and/or ethical, but also said only one who really "dignifies man "(and not also those arising from the exercise and/or human thinking, to create, to make art, etc.);2-The second, based on the idea that "only by working and working a lot, do you get out from poverty, misery and/or social exclusion."Didactically, we demonstrate that these are two big lies told by the owners of capital in order to continue, as they have done for centuries, exploring the working class, i.e., turning men into irrational beings, labor slaves, is aiming at maintaining the "status quo "of exclusion on a global scale. However, we are not only in criticism, or present alternatives to overcome this exclusion condition, aiming, however, to make the deleted and/or slave wage of postmodern capital may cease to be, but without that same way, want to become also a contemporary slavery.We hope that this work can make us think about the meaning of work in our lives and also the kind of human beings (although we considered rational beings, Homo sapiens) have over the fact that history solid or able to be, when placed in the condition of the slave system.Anyway, we hope that this work, which is another of the series "pedagogy of socio-economic inclusion," like every other author, also may contribute to the formation of a less alienated generation, more equitable and fair, socially speaking, and also in same route, more humane and more intellectually emancipated.The author
