Before continuing from my last post, I decided to re-examine my direction and specifically the scope of the overarching theme in contrast with what is feasible given the boundaries set by the institute (re word count).

I find the overarching theme fascinating but in exploring its vastness, I began to question whether the literature and society at large had the tools or rather, the ability to take a step back and ponder the question. Upon this reflection, a thought came to me, before even being able to ask the question above (the two questions in the box above, that are in fact one and the same), there are certain prerequisites that must be defined and clarified and that is what I decided to seek in my research.

From which, the working title:

“The Prolegomena to a Desired Future of Work that Promotes Human Flourishing”

The visualisation from the last post explored the overarching theme from two different angles, the theoretical vs the practical. After the reflection above, I pivoted to incorporate both avenues into my research in a way that would complement my inquiry.

For those who have read my previous blogs, you would have noticed that I’m enjoying making visuals this semester. Here’s another one that visualises the further development I have discussed in this post.
