CORE 002 SC - Eat the Rich! Capitalism and Work


We live in a world saturated by capitalism. As a result, we often fail to evaluate critically the conditions of exploitation, the drudgery of labor, and the role of class in our daily life. Is work inherently a social and political good? Is poverty just a given? Why is the working class sometimes demonized? This course examines labor under capitalism, the transformation of traditional values and practices set in motion by the triumphant march of capital, and the possibilities for change.

Course Credit: 1.0
