Summary

1. Argues that the trend to reduce of working time and increase labour productivity through automation has brought about endemic underemployment and a devalorization of labour. Points out that leisure has become the dominant factor of the "social time" of postindustrial societies. Criticizes efforts to combat unemployment through the creation of precarious jobs. Proposes a sociology of leisure.
