In this episode I review a 2017 book by Professor Peter Fleming, entitled 'The Death of Homo Economicus: Work, Debt and the Myth of Endless Accumulation'. I discuss its bracing and polemical critique of 'late capitalism' and the strengths and limitations of such 'critical management studies' perspectives which aim to shed light on power, control, exploitation and resistance in our workplaces and societies.
