After Work, the Fight for Free Time

The work of social reproduction has largely been missed by post work. The classic idea is to sayng, well, we have this work which needs to be done. Let's automate it with a robot, and then we can have free time. With social reproduction, you can't really do that, either technically, economically or morally in many cases. So thereis a really interesting story to be told about the increase in child care standards over the past century. We spend more time on children to day than we did in the 19 seventies. This is where the shelter against communism comes from. Is a sort of building off some of those pieces from eflux.
