We see things and people not as they are, but as we are.

Awareness

Anthony de Mello

working people's gains in sovereignty over their work can be combined with a privatization of the physical and mental health risks of work through spatial flexibilization of wage labor. Norms for the protection of laborers resist public enforcement in decentralized labor forms, and the costs for violation or compliance are shifted off onto the workers themselves (just as, incidentally, the businesses save the costs of the centralized organization of wage labor, from building expenses to the maintenance of the stock of electronic equipment).

Risk Society

Ulrich Beck

‘To meet this challenge’, says Kapp ‘[…] requires even more than quantification and mathematics. It requires a willingness to take account of and evaluate the physical flows and effects in real terms’. Doing science differently, going beyond economic rationality by developing a new ecological reason.

Grégoire Chamayou
