In this timely book, Barbara Czarniawska and Bernward Joerges
examine the hopes and fears around work and job security inspired
by automation, from the original coining of the term 'robot' to the
present day media fascination. Have these hopes and fears changed
or do they remain the same? This discerning book investigates
whether these changes in perception correlate to actual changes
taking place in the field of robotics. Exploring several streams of
popular culture, including ground-breaking science fiction novels
and films, the impact of these globally renowned works on public
opinion regarding robotics is assessed. Detailed media analysis
identifies the frequency and complexity of common views that stem
from the ideas found in both fiction and scientific research
results disseminated by the news. Recent social science works
dedicated to the study of robotziation are then reviewed,
illustrating current and future debates surrounding the phenomenon
of the 'robot revolution'. Robotization of Work? will be a key
resource for students and scholars studying the organization of
work, IT and digitalization, and cultural studies. It will also be
of interest to anyone engaged with the concepts of artificial
intelligence (AI) and robotization.
