The Corrosion of Character

The Personal Consequences of Work in the New Capitalism
Book • 1998
In 'The Corrosion of Character', Richard Sennett examines the effects of contemporary capitalism on personal and social life.

He argues that the shift towards flexible work undermines long-term commitments and personal narratives, leading to the erosion of traditional values like loyalty and mutual commitment.

Through real-life stories, Sennett illustrates how these changes affect individuals' sense of self and their relationships.
