Mal-estar na civilização do capitalismo tardio: os supérfluos como insígnia da obsolescência programada humana do mundo do trabalho

Abstract

The following thesis aims to analyze the expansion of the superfluous in contemporary times as a consequence of the general law of capitalist accumulation arising from the relationship between capital and labor. Superfluous are understood to be those that are no longer of interest to the dynamics of capital. Starting from the Marxian theoretical framework, this thesis analyzes and demonstrates that the relationship between capital and labor, contradictory and complementary, imposes on society its uninterrupted path of valuing value. To this end, capital, in its permanent state of revolutionizing its productive capacity, by raising its organic composition, finds in itself its immeasurability, thus leading its variable part to its obsolescence. This theoretical trend and analysis materialize with the criticism of global indicators, other facts and contemporary data that allow us to visualize the totality. In the structural crisis instituted and in the globalized scenario of the barbarism of the superfluotization of humanity, work has been touted as a way out, which no longer exists. The spell of the world of work warns: humanity is decomposing and the superfluous are the insignia of human planned obsolescence.
