The Changing Work Ethic (Giuseppe Fortuna)

The aim of this essay is to speculate about the changing work ethic. It is divided into two synthetic parts. In part one I will discuss the changing workplace. In part two, I will speculate about the changing work ethic hoping to stimulate further discussions. I do not pretend with this essay, to include all the contradictions and work ethic changes of the workplace. It is well known that all over the world, millions of workers do not have a job. For them the work ethic is not even part of their daily life. Lately, the workplace is changing very fast thanks to the technological revolution and in social science we have to dedicate more attention to all these changes.
