Friday is the New Saturday makes a compelling, provocative and
timely case for societal change. Drawing on an eclectic range of
economic theory, history and data, Dr Pedro Gomes argues that a
four-day working week will bring about a powerful economic renewal
for the benefit of all society. It will stimulate demand,
productivity, innovation and wages, whilst reducing unemployment
and crushing populist movements. The arguments come from both the
left and right of the political spectrum to show that a polarised
society can still find common ground. In the 1800s, people in the
West worked six days each week, resting on Sundays. In the 1900s,
firms began to give workers Saturdays off as well, realising that a
two-day weekend helped the economy. In the 2000s, Friday will
become the new Saturday, and we will never look back.
