About this Event

In Empowering Workers in an Age of Automation: Social Justice, Technology, and the Future of Work (Oxford University Press, 2025), Tom Parr (University of Warwick) has developed a groundbreaking philosophical framework for theorizing the demands of social justice in the contemporary labour market.

In this book launch, Tom Parr will discuss the book's contributions to questions of automation, empowerment and the future of work with Rebecca Clark (LSE) and David Axelsen (Essex), and will be chaired by Bruno Leipold (LSE). The discussion will be followed by a reception hosted by the LSE Political Theory Group.
