Length: 500-750 words; 3 to 5 paragraphs
This project is modeled on the format of the online publication In Media Res, seen here: http://mediacommons.futureofthebook.org/imr/ .
For this project, you will choose a short visual or auditory text (video clip, commercial, photograph, song, cartoon, piece of music, speech, etc.). It must be 3 minutes or less. It must not replicate anything we have read or viewed for class.
Explain it using one of the methods of theorizing work suggested by John Budd in the article that has also been posted. He argues that work may be seen from a variety of different perspectives, including the following:
1. Work as a Commodity (Marx)
2. Occupational Citizenship (work/government – rights for workers)
3. Disutility (workbad; leisuregood)
4. Personal Fulfillment (psychological outcomes of work)
5. Social Relation (social class, power)
6. Caring for Others (unpaid work mainly done by women)
