Abstract

Nick Srnicek, a Canadian professor at King’s College in London, is one of the authors of the Accelerate Manifesto and a book which imagines a post-capitalist world without work. Helen Hester is a founding member of a collective responsible for the book Xenofeminism. Written by both, this article focuses on a type of work that is generally neglected in political calculations and sociological research: the unpaid labour of social reproduction that consists of such activities as cleaning, caring and cooking.
