We continue our path to read David Harvey's "Seventeen Contradictions and the End of Capitalism".
We enter now in the second part of the book, 'The Moving Contradictions'.
In this meeting we will review and present:
- Chapter 8 "Technology, Work and Human Disposability" (pages 91-11)
- Chapter 9 "Divisions of Labour" (pages 112-130)
In addition, we are going to discuss also this additional article that will give show us Harvey's geographical and urban approaches:
