Naomi Klein backs, by implication, the idea of a Four-Hour Work Day

The idea of a Four-Hour Work Day is justified by many things, among them a changing climate, the blatant inequality arising from the existing economic structure and, critically and importantly, the desire to survive.

Naomi Klein.

The need to survive our changing climate has prompted Canadian author, journalist and social activist known for her political analyses and criticism of corporate globalization and of corporate capitalism, has made that point in an interview with Spiegal Online International.

A kicker headline on the story says: “Can we still stop global warming? Only if we radically change our capitalist system, argues author Naomi Klein. In an interview with SPIEGEL, she explains why the time has come to abandon small steps for a radical new approach.”

Embedded in Klein’s view is the urgent need to dethrone the capitalist system and work at creating a more egalitarian society and maybe one which would revolve around many of the ideas upon which the Four-Hour Work Day is built.
