Work and self-development: a philosophical reappraisal

许多澳大利亚人对工作感到担忧，也许是以比以往任何时候都更复杂的方式。进入职场的年轻人缺乏曾经由既定职业道路提供的方向，中年工作者经常面临令人困惑的角色转变，难以找到正确的工作与生活平衡，许多离开工作的人发现自己的生活突然失去了意义。这个项目将通过将作品框定在一个符合当代工作经验的深度和复杂性的人类形象中，来阐明这些焦虑。它承诺更深入地了解有助于促进健康并加强澳大利亚社会和经济结构的工作。

Many Australians are worried about work, perhaps in more complex ways than ever before. Young people entering work lack the orientation once provided by established career paths, mid-life workers are often subject to disorienting shifts in role and difficulties finding the right 'work-life' balance, and many people leaving work find their lives suddenly bereft of meaning. This project will shed light on these anxieties by framing work within an image of the human that does justice to the depth and complexity of contemporary work experience. It promises a deeper understanding of work that would help promote good health and strengthen Australia's social and economic fabric.
