Below we reproduce a conversation that JA and I (SE) a purpose and a small little article Paula magazine review I recommended. JA writes:
"work ethic, the adulation of productivity, the status that you assign to identify with your work, is the product of the capitalist mode of production ... is not An unfortunate consequence of progress, not a cost to be paid for, which utilitarian, a higher social benefit ... is only part of a network address of tactics to increase the share of profit derived from the collar worker productivity White (tú! ).... the guy in the article should be paying homage to the heroic workers luddistas eighteenth century English, put a bomb in his job, destroying the office and hang your head in the guts of mayoritatio shareholder in a public and terminate wiring Bartleby paraphrase, and say "I'd rather not!". .... indeed, the idea is not "popular" and "accepted" ever created, but it would be beautiful, max!

tend to think that, beyond organizing a massacre management, intervention should be doomed to question the duality Work / Life. Only by eliminating this duality, we have constructed and naturalized, we could eliminate those that both have to be 'workaholics', escaped from 'Life', and we'd all be a little more comfortable in our experience.
Now, what I intend to root does not generate solutions, and also I very much agree that this phenomenon is a product of a capitalist society with a naturalized, hegemonic. Probably the only alternative to a structural change is in completely unpredictable phenomena and events, not written, more real.

The dual work / life may be correct (although I prefer my orthodox Marxism and talk duality between capital and labor, in short, no matter of taste?), but the "intervention" that speak only question the duality you mention if you attack the element that builds this duality, and does not allow a synthesis between these two factors (labor and life), and that element is not the poor guy who is a workaholic, he is only aiming to target the symptom and not the cause (such as the coup blamed on the soldiers and not to entrepreneurs ...), but the social order in the production it needs to continue to play such mechanism, the endless accumulation of capital. On the other hand, "unpredictable processes, not written, more real," do you mean? I smell postmodern little things "enough of large programs, back to the microluchas", "contingency overpowers the forefront issue ".... I totally disagree, but it will be a topic of discussion when we are physically, and not by these means hahaha ... so impersonal "
