摘要

This article explores Bateson's definition of flexibility as "uncommitted potential for change", relating it to contemporary issues and scientific controversies and thereby showing the huge, largely untapped potential of the concept. The main empirical example is the "new economy", where the term flexibility is used aggressively to advertise its virtues. However, it is argued, flexible work tends to render the worker more flexible in relation to space, but less flexible regarding time. This illustrates another point in Bateson's analysis of flexibility, namely that flexibility gained in one domain tends to reduce flexibility in another. The ensuing problems are familiar enough -fragmentation, alienation, stress - but poorly understood, and Bateson's flexibility concept makes it possible, in fact, to deal with the unintentional side-effects of "new work" as a kind of environmental problem.
