      abstract = {"This book is an exceptionally rich study that will mark a  major intervention in the live discussions on the social  and political centrality of work. Cukier investigates the  many ways in which democratic life depends on the  democratic control of the economy, from workplaces to the  economy as a whole." Jean-Philippe Deranty, Professor of  Philosophy, Macquarie University, Australia. This book  proposes a radical transformation of labour institutions,  in order to lay the foundation for the democratization of  society rather than capitalist accumulation. Using an  empirical analysis of the contemporary world of work,  Alexis Cukier examines the democratic meaning of todays  critique of work organization and questions the theoretical  models (linked to class struggles and to industrial  democracy) to conceive of a "democratic work." Considering  particular historical experiments (such as cooperatives,  self-management, workers councils) that try to realize  democracy at work, this book also analyzes the political  issue of "democratic work" in relation to issues such as  labour law, feminist struggles and political ecology.  Ultimately, this book proposes some institutional paths  that could overtake the divide between the rights of the  citizens and the rights of the workers, arguing finally: if  we really want to radicalize democracy, we should begin  with democratizing work. Alexis Cukier is Associate  Professor of Moral and Political Philosophy and member of  the research laboratory Mtaphysique Allemande et  Philosophie Pratique, University of Poitiers, France.},
