Entreprecariat: Hustler Edition - Book Launch with Silvio Lorusso

​Entrepreneur or precarious worker? These are the terms of a cognitive dissonance that turns everyone’s life into a shaky project in perennial start-up phase. Silvio Lorusso guides us through the entreprecariat, a world where change is natural and healthy, whatever it may bring. A world populated by motivational posters, productivity tools, mobile offices and self-help techniques. A world in which a mix of entrepreneurial ideology and widespread precarity is what regulates professional social media, online marketplaces for self-employment and crowdfunding platforms for personal needs. The result? A life in permanent beta, with sometimes tragic implications.

This new edition, published seven years after the first and expanded with a new full chapter, is a needed update for a time when precarity has become ubiquitous and entrepreneurialism has gone berserk.

Join us for a conversation with author and designer Silvio Lorusso to (re)launch the publication, out now on Set Margins.
