c2006., Yale University Press Call No: 306.3 S478c Availability:1 of 1 At Your Library Series Title: The Castle lectures in ethics, politics, and economics.Summary Note: "The distinguished sociologist Richard Sennett surveys major differences between earlier forms of industrial capitalism and the more global, more febrile, ever more mutable version of capitalism that is taking its place. He shows how these changes affect everyday life - how the work ethic is changing; how new beliefs about merit and talent displace old values of craftsmanship and achievement; how what Sennett calls "the specter of uselessness" haunts professionals as well as manual workers; how the boundary between consumption and politics is dissolving."--BOOK JACKET.
