Bag om The Right to Be Lazy

The Right To Be Lazy: And Other Studies is a collection of essays written by Paul Lafargue in 1907. The book is a critique of the capitalist system and the idea that hard work is a virtue. Lafargue argues that the working class should have the right to be lazy and that the pursuit of leisure time is a fundamental human right. He also explores the negative effects of the Protestant work ethic and the exploitation of workers under capitalism. The book includes essays on topics such as the history of the working class, the role of religion in society, and the importance of art and culture. The Right To Be Lazy is a seminal work of socialist thought and remains relevant in contemporary discussions of labor rights and the value of work.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
