Abstract: Computer work is a kind of cognitive work resulting from a social partnership which has a complex relationship with the social knowledge that permanently updates it. Unlike the industrial work, computer work is indistinguishable by observation but is very heterogeneous in content. Its organization involves the formation of teams, networks and projects of all kinds, in a continuum from the development of customized software, consultancy to video games and simulations. The resulting product refers to an informational good subject to the vicissitudes of intellectual property and the organization of computer work to the appropriation of knowledge and the prescription of a type of subjectivity that radically alters production notions of the industrial paradigm.
