Éloge du carburateur: Essai sur le sens et la valeur du travail
By Matthew B Crawford. 2020
Matthew B. Crawford était un brillant universitaire, bien payé pour travailler dans un think tank à Washington. Au bout de…
quelques mois, déprimé, il démissionne pour ouvrir... un atelier de réparation de motos. À partir du récit de son étonnante reconversion, il livre dans cet ouvrage intelligent et drôle une réflexion particulièrement fine sur le sens et la valeur du travail dans les sociétés occidentales. Mêlant anecdotes, récit, et réflexions philosophiques et sociologiques, il montre que ce « travail intellectuel », dont on nous rebat les oreilles, se révèle pauvre et déresponsabilisant. À l'inverse, il restitue l'expérience de ceux qui, comme lui, s'emploient à fabriquer ou réparer des objets dans un monde où l'on ne sait plus qu'acheter, jeter et remplacer. Le travail manuel peut même se révéler beaucoup plus captivant d'un point de vue intellectuel que tous les nouveaux emplois de l'« économie du savoir »If you're a monster and you know it
