«¿Ocio o placer? Suicidio de la burguesía y agonía del proletariado» is the essay by Víctor Alba, published by Planeta in paperback, 283 pages, in Spanish.
The author analyses the place of leisure and pleasure in an increasingly mechanised society, where the decline of the bourgeoisie and the crisis of the proletariat redefine social and economic relations. Against this backdrop, he presents free time as a central question of the future and examines its implications for everyday life and social organisation.
Published in 1991 in the Espejo de España hoy collection, it includes bibliographic references (pp. 273-278) and an index.
For readers of sociological essays interested in the relationship between work, technology and free time, and in society's changes in the face of automation.
Víctor Alba who also went as Pere Pagès i Elies was a Spanish anti-Stalinist communist politician, journalist, writer and Spanish university professor.
