¿Solamente despilfarro? Sobre redundancia y "slack" en la producción ligera

Just waste? On redundancy and slack in the lean production – The autor’s reflections on the different forms of ”slimming down” in lean production lead directly to the heart of some of the most radical thinking on the subject of the organisation of work in his social context. After examining the different forms of slack and redundancy, the autor considers the ways in which flexibility in the use of resources, labour, technology and capital is identified and managed. These reflections on the redundancy of human labour in particular prove highly fruitful for the conceptualization and discussion of the various models of production, and above all, of their impact beyond the factory, in society as a whole.
