Beschreibung

In 'The Instinct of Workmanship and the State of the Industrial Arts' by Thorstein Veblen, the author explores the role of craftsmanship in modern industrial society. Veblen argues that the instinct of workmanship is a fundamental human drive that has been undermined by the profit-driven motives of industrial capitalism. He delves into the ways in which modern industry has shifted focus away from quality craftsmanship towards mass production and consumerism. Veblen's writing style is characterized by keen observation and insightful analysis, making this book a seminal work in the field of economic and sociological thought. Its relevance extends beyond the time it was written to shed light on contemporary issues in the global economy. The book serves as a critique of the industrial system and a call to reconsider the values underlying modern production methods, making it essential reading for anyone interested in economics, sociology, or industrial design.
