Abstract

The article begins with a list of possible meanings of work, based in a suitable definition of life as an activity of setting goals and their materialization. The value of work is instrumental (although it has an intrinsic value as well), and its articulation and distribution is the subject of ethical scrutiny in the remainder of the article. The issues of social roles in this distribution have been discussed in more detail, along with issues of justice, rights, and moral restraints regarding work. The article ends with a projection of contemporary capitalism, which shows a very strong tendency to enhance its scope in so far uncovered parts of social life.
