David Rolfe Graeber (/ˈɡreɪbər/; born 12 February 1961) is a London-based anthropologist and anarchist activist, perhaps best known for his 2011 volume Debt: The First 5000 Years. He is Professor of Anthropology at the London School of Economics.
As an assistant professor and associate professor of anthropology at Yale from 1998–2007 he specialised in theories of value and social theory. The university's decision not to rehire him when he would otherwise have become eligible for tenure sparked an academic controversy, and a petition with more than 4,500 signatures. He went on to become, from 2007–13, Reader in Social Anthropology at Goldsmiths, University of London.
His activism includes protests against the 3rd Summit of the Americas in Quebec City in 2001, and the 2002 World Economic Forum in New York City. Graeber was a leading figure in the Occupy Wall Street movement, and is sometimes credited with having coined the slogan, "We are the 99 percent".

From bestselling writer David Graeber, a powerful argument against the rise of meaningless, unfulfilling jobs, and their consequences.
Does your job make a meaningful contribution to the world? In the spring of 2013, David Graeber asked this question in a playful, provocative essay titled “On the Phenomenon of Bullshit Jobs.” It went viral. After a million online views in seventeen different languages, people all over the world are still debating the answer.
There are millions of people—HR consultants, communication coordinators, telemarketing researchers, corporate lawyers—whose jobs are useless, and, tragically, they know it. These people are caught in bullshit jobs.
Graeber explores one of society’s most vexing and deeply felt concerns, indicting among other villains a particular strain of finance capitalism that betrays ideals shared by thinkers ranging from Keynes to Lincoln. Bullshit Jobs gives individuals, corporations, and societies permission to undergo a shift in values, placing creative and caring work at the center of our culture. This book is for everyone who wants to turn their vocation back into an avocation.
Blinkist reads# Utterly unrealistic as it sounds, this book does offer a desirable working scheme that might come true for our future generations. It is already happening in Switzerland. So I guess many of the criticisms for the theory are quite undue.
评分对“无价值工作”的界定有一些待商榷的地方,但只说作者发现并指出这一现象,又将其归结为“资本主义在异化和控制人”的观点,还是很有价值的。可惜的是,这些观点本身没有足够强有力的分析或论据作为支持。另外我个人觉得,缺乏对“财富分配模式如何形成”的讨论和批判,也使得整本书的论证框架有些破碎。适合拿来打发打发时间(摊手
评分我重点看了一章对bullshit job的分类,发现自己落入了taskmaster
评分这本书雄心勃勃地选了一个很有意思的题目,做了一些很趣的调查/采访,但越读越感觉到作者明显的虎头蛇尾——书的后半部分越来越缺乏实质内容。70%弃
