Abstract
Faced with a human being still today trapped in a world of capitalist morphology, which claims to be the only one possible, Marco Visentin invites us to investigate and reflect on the concept of alienation. Within the all-encompassing logic of the company, the worker is never called to be blissful or happy, but productive and efficient, in a horizon in which attention shifts from man's being to his mere doing. In this overview the author clarifies the need for the worker, as an isolated economic actor within mere exchange relationships, to stop giving himself entirely to the non-own, albeit legitimate, cause of the objective of creating value in order to reclaim his own purpose and rediscover the true meaning of being a man among other men.
