Sailing to Bohemia: The Vision of Freedom from Work Discipline - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

What is bohemia? What roles has it played in our past -- and how might it be important to our present and future?

Sailing to Bohemia is the first scholarly attempt to survey the whole global history of bohemianism, and try to give some unity to what is at first sight a very confusing field.

It tells the story of bohemianism in its many forms, and also of various precursors which did not use that name but which expressed the same impulse: the rejection of enforced wage labour, and the desire for a society based on creativity, mutual aid and direct relationship.

Sailing to Bohemia argues that bohemia is a continuous potential in human society, like a gene that will be expressed in any suitable environment; and that its world view is a significant third way distinct from both dominant and working class cultures.
