About the book
David Graeber investigates the contemporary phenomenon of "bullshit jobs" — jobs that seem completely useless and that even their holders know are unnecessary. The book combines sociological analysis, labor history, and personal stories to examine how modern economies have created and perpetuated jobs with no real value.
A scathing critique of contemporary capitalism that raises profound questions about meaningful work, dignity, and social utility.
