«El fin del trabajo» is the essay by Jeremy Rifkin, published by Ediciones Paidós in paperback (400 pages, in Spanish).
Jeremy Rifkin argues that automation and robotics eliminate jobs in all sectors and drive up unemployment. The world is polarizing between a technological elite and a mass of displaced people. The author proposes embracing the post-market era, creating new income streams and strengthening the third sector to rebuild communities.
