Description Czech society is a work society. In this paradigm, the current development of modern technology is seen as a reason for the reallocation of the workforce. The market will cope with the situation and create new jobs. The other recognized alternative for the technologically unemployed is poverty. The need to choose between work and poverty is in fact a false dilemma. There is another solution – a post-work society. The main argument for moving to a post-work society is based on freedom. It is not necessary for technology to be seen as a threat to employment, but as a liberator of workers. One is not free at work and the way to overcome this situation is to abandon work as much as possible. The transition to a post-work society has both practical and economic advantages.
