Ob Foodora, Deliveroo oder Uber – die Unternehmen der Plattformökonomie bieten denen, die für sie arbeiten, oft das Schlechteste aus beiden Welten: die Unfreiheit von Angestellten gepaart mit der Unsicherheit von Freelancern. Die sogenannte Gig Economy ist allerdings nur die Spitze des Eisbergs. Längst ist auch das Standard-Beschäftigungsmodell in die Krise geraten: Minijobs und aufgeweichter Kündigungsschutz, unfreiwillige Teilzeit und Zeitarbeit sind allesamt Facetten einer Entwicklung, die den Arbeitsmarkt des globalen Nordens seit den späten siebziger Jahren erschüttert. Colin Crouch liefert eine differenzierte Analyse und bietet Vorschläge für zeitgemäße Reformen, mit denen die Unsicherheiten auf dem Arbeitsmarkt abgefedert werden könnten.

From insects to fish as well as birds and primates: the use of tools is amazingly widespread in the animal kingdom. It’s a misnomer to presume that humans are distinguished by tool use and conscious capacity. So where is culture initiated? The biologist Peter-René Becker has evaluated numerous studies and cites plenty of evidence for the use of the hammer and anvil, lances, bait or sponges. Animals also use “tools as social implements”. Ultimately, the depth of man’s conscience singles him out from other animals.

Peter Weiss wurde am 8. November 1916 in Nowawes bei Berlin geboren und starb am 10. Mai 1982 in Stockholm. Zwischen 1918 und 1929 lebte er in Bremen, wo er das Gymnasium besuchte. 1929 kehrte die Familie Weiss nach Berlin zurück, musste jedoch 1934 emigrieren. Die erste Station bildete London, darauf folgte 1936 die SR. In diesen Jahren widmete sich Peter Weiss vorwiegend der Malerei – 1937/1938 studierte er Malerei an der Kunstakademie in Prag. In dieser Zeit besuchte er Hermann Hesse während zweier längerer Aufenthalte in der Schweiz. Die dritte und letzte Emigrationsstation bildete 1939 Schweden, wo Peter Weiss zunächst in Alingsås, ab 1940 in Stockholm wohnte. Hier setzte er seine Tätigkeit als Maler fort. 1947 hielt er sich als Korrespondent einer schwedischen Tagesszeitung in Berlin auf. Seine Artikel versammelte er 1948 zu seiner ersten Buchpublikation. Der Band erschien posthum 1985 unter dem Titel Die Besiegten. Ab diesem Zeitraum entstanden, in schwedischer Sprache, die ersten Prosaarbeiten, Gedichte, und Dramen. Zu den wichtigsten Erzählungen aus dieser Schaffensperiode zählen Die Situation aus dem Jahre 1956 sowie das 1980 unter dem Autorenpseudonym Sinclair veröffentlichte Buch Der Fremde. Keines seiner Manuskripte wurde jedoch von einem schwedischen Verlag zur Publikation angenommen. Mitte der fünfziger Jahre begann Peter Weiss in deutscher Sprache zu schreiben. 1960 erschien sein erstes Prosabuch Der Schatten des Körpers des Kutschers. Zu Beginn der siebziger Jahre wand sich Peter Weiss wieder der Prosa zu. Zwischen 1975 und 1981 erschien der dreibändige Roman Die Ästhetik des Widerstands, deren letzter Band begleitet wird von Notizbücher 1971 – 1980. Ihm wurde posthum der Georg-Büchner-Preis für das Jahr 1982 zuerkannt. Beat Mazenauer, geboren 1958, Germanist und Historiker, lebt als Literaturkritiker und freier Autor in Luzern.
