Lucy (homo faber) theory that humans are the working animal the argument against that theory, modern anthropologists find hunter/gatherers did not believe in worl. Great chain of being view of creation, universe and creation, what that looks like. Schole vs ascholia example of slavery: schole (leisure) emerges from masters and ascholia (work) emerges from slave work. Alegory of the cave false seriousness, socrates uses this to describe human condition. Idealists believe everything that they see is real. Atomic theory everything is made of tiny atoms, everything is built from ground up. Hunters and gatherers worked on average 3-4 hours a day. Work was sporatic and unorganized, leaders led by example. Motivation to work not for money, work is a group activity. Security based off of property and place within culture. Socratic method- asking for the truth and searching for it.
