Confronting Complicity in Capitalism, Week 8: Work Anarchy
What is ‘work’? Is it the thing that gives me money? Or the thing I spend time and energy on? And what if those two were … separate?
In week 8 of Confronting Complicity in Capitalism, Elena and I unpack and repack ‘work.’
It turns out there are MANY ways to do ‘work.’
For anyone aware of ‘relationship anarchy,’ this may sound familiar. Just like there are more ways to have a relationship than “traditional marriage with house and kids and everything with one partner,” there are more ways to work than “job description with fixed hours and a salary.”
In fact, it’s a whole smorgasbord of choices!
And they don’t just apply to me as an individual.
We are coming up with our own model of a “purpose partnership.” Not a startup or business venture, not just project collaborators, not friends helping each other out. But with new-to-me interdependence – shared risk, mutual exchange and development, co-creation, making decisions together, a deep commitment. With money and way beyond money.
We are curious what comes up for you as you unpack and re-pack this idea of ‘work’:
Could ‘relationship anarchy’ apply to work?
Could we uncouple what is considered ‘work’?
How could we put it back together in new creative ways?
Resources on topics mentioned:
On Miki Kashtan and NGL
On relationship anarchy: manifesto, smorgasbord, history
As always, follow along on…
