Check out the 10th episode of INTERVALLE, the Université Côte d'Azur podcast, featuring Professor Anthony Hussenot, on the topic of work.
Anthony Hussenot sheds light on the changes in the world of work in the knowledge economy: freedom, management, space, and the crisis of meaning. An episode that invites us to rethink what work means today.
In this episode, we delve into the heart of the transformations in the world of work in the age of the knowledge economy, alongside Anthony Hussenot, professor of management sciences at GREDEG (Université Côte d’Azur, CNRS) and co-editor of the book *Another World of Work Is Possible*, with Sophia Galière.
How has the concept of work evolved throughout history? What does “working in the knowledge economy” really mean? Can knowledge workers truly break free from traditional workplaces and schedules? Are we facing greater freedom… or a new form of alienation where we never truly disconnect?
And what about management: how do we supervise, today, those whose work relies on creativity, information sharing, and knowledge processing?
Finally, in a context where work seems to be undergoing a crisis of meaning, how do we rediscover a purpose, a sense of usefulness, and a place within the collective?
These are all essential questions explored in this episode of INTERVALLE, presented and produced by the Science and Society department at Université Côte d’Azur.
