Philosophical Critiques of Leisure in Modern Society
This chapter explores critical philosophical views on leisure and productivity, starting with Marx’s critique of societal happiness influenced by religion. It delves into Russell's thoughts on the undervaluation of true leisure and concludes with Adorno's argument that in capitalism, free time is an extension of work rather than genuine freedom.
