The course focuses on work both as a topic of philosophy and as a problematic issue of our time, as today there is a tendency to evaluate work either only from the point of view of personal satisfaction, or only from the point of view of results and in terms of efficiency.
The course will examine the main philosophical positions on work, including that of liberalism, Marxism and modern capitalism, and then propose a reflection on what work well done means, i.e. an activity that is formative for those who carry it out and realised with a service mentality.
Gender differences will also be taken into account both in the approach to work and in the irreplaceable contribution women can make in the professional world.
