Reading Group 3 - Anti-Work (Lost)

Quiver: New Weapons for Thought

Quiver 3 was lost to the cloud. On March 1st, Quiver continued with a reading group on “Anti-Work.”
We read two anti-work texts that spoke to our previous readings. If you are not familiar with the political tradition, we suggest you do a little background research (a decent reading list is available here: https://www.reddit.com/r/antiwork/wiki/library)
The first text elaborates on The Refusal of Work in the post-Deleuzian register of Italian autonomist Marxism. Read the additional section if you would like more historical context on Autonomia, feminist interventions, and counter-cultural projects.
The second is a far-ranging critique of economics as a technical (and now cybernetic) system. Its argument is that there is no such thing as “alternative economics.” But rather, it is something to be dismantled.
