Introduction Nowadays management plays a key role in a business organization. To be successful manager has to be mobile, determined, flexible, and know how to cooperate in a network. But while being useful for a manager, these features can be too hard for workers, who labor very hard to be compatible in a modern market. Therefore, there had been made a number of studies that proved the new capitalism to be extremely demanding to the workers. Ideas expressed by Boltanski and Chapello For example, in their book, Boltanski and Chapello describe the new paradigm of production to be one of the forms of workers’ exploitation. This idea is supported by a multitude of facts and illustrations. The authors are very convincing and the book can be considered to be rather persuasive. Therefore, it can be useful to analyze the means which the authors used to achieve such results. Firstly, the authors describe the modern management system, highlighting its main points. Specifically, the distinguishing features of the way of organizing today’s business are mobility, multifunction, and flexibility. These qualities prove to be comfortable and beneficial for the customers and employers, but the conditions for workers are not always taken into consideration. For instance, the main demand for the employees is the ability to work anytime when it is comfortable for the customer. Such flexible timetables can be a discriminating phenomenon, as the workers have to labor during peak hours without any additional fee. This process, together with others described in the book, is defined by the authors as the third stage in the new spirit of capitalism. Secondly, Boltanski and Chapello (2007) state that “concealed behind the imperative of flexibility” (p. 227), the employers tend to rely on casual factors while choosing people to work. It means that there is no security for the workers because their skills or education became less important than mobility. There appeared a risk of losing a job for no reason, which caused great pressure on the workers. Namely, old people more and more often are becoming redundant because of early retirement which is practiced nowadays. People are easier to be controlled while they are in a state of fear, and the insecurity in terms of the job makes people work more intensively for the same money. The other factors the authors concentrate on are such phenomena as part-time and temporary works. These forms of working are very profitable for employees, as they allow them to fulfill the working plans with minimum loss. Specifically, the workers get paid only for the hours of actual work. This excludes breaks, holidays, maternal leaves which used to be included in the salaries previously. This also leads to the increase of working hours beyond the legal schedule. The authors illustrate this with the examples of firms that had no stable timetable and could either prolong or shorten the working day. Obviously, the first option was preferable. They mention McDonald’s, Toyota, and other powerful corporations which manipulate an incredibly large amount of employees using this technique. Such a system leaves no choice for some workers who have no possibility to take on full-time jobs and is fairly considered by Boltanski and Chapello to be an effective method of exploitat
