This book examines the challenge of accelerating automation, and
argues that countering and adapting to this challenge requires new
methodological, philosophical, scientific, sociological, economic,
ethical, and political perspectives that fundamentally rethink the
categories of work and education. What is required is political will
and social vision to respond to the question: What is the role of
education in a digital age characterized by potential mass
technological unemployment? Today’s technologies are beginning to
cost more jobs than they create – and this trend will continue.
There have been many proposed solutions to this problem, and they
invariably involve an educational vision. Yet, in a world that simply
doesn’t offer enough work for everyone, education is clearly not a
panacea for technological unemployment. This collection presents
responses to this question from a wide spectrum of disciplines,
including but not limited to education studies, philosophy,history,
politics, sociology, psychology, and economics.
