And so it begins, the final arc in this section on Utopia: a short series on Kathi Weeks' 2011 The Problem with Work: Feminism, Marxism, Antiwork Politics, and Postwork Imaginaries. If you couldn’t guess it from the title, we’ve got a lot to unpack here, and there’s no way this is all going to fit in one episode. I’m going to be breaking this down into two sections, over several episodes. Following Weeks, I’m breaking these sections into what she calls the Refusal, the diagnostic and deconstructive dimension of a critical theory of work, and the Demand, for remedies and for the imagining of alternative futures.
