Description
Anders Hayden explores how the reduction of work time can play an integral role in an alternative ecological vision. Reduced work time will help sustain the environment, and ensure increased employment, social justice, and a high quality of life. Hayden’s ideas challenge the current economic system driven by consumerism.
