Summary/Abstract: This article is the transcription of a paper given at an international conference held in Constanţa on 10-12th June 2016 entitled “Man – an eternal challenge” and for this reason its subject is man seen from the perspective of the pedagogy of work in the era of cognitive capitalism. The article’s focus is the neo-liberal anthropology of the worker, the worker-enterprise’s shift from alienation to self-alienation, the biopolitics of work and its subjection mechanisms and lastly a number of educational, anthropological and cultural tasks which pedagogy must take on board if it is to check the excessive economic rationality which is invading work and life.
