most people assume that the members of the shoshone band worked ceaselessly in an unremitting search for sustenance such a dramatic picture might appear confirmed by an erroneous theory almost everyone recalls from schooldays a high culture emerges only when the people have the leisure to build pyramids or to create art the fact is that high civilization is hectic and that primitive hunters and collectors of wild food like the shoshone are among the most leisured people on earth peter farb 1968 while perhaps a little dated in its terminology this quote does point to some unspoken assumptions about leisure time in our society people claim to want it yet they also don t want to be seen as lazy and there are larger questions such as what is the point of life to work and consume or is that the treadmill people find themselves on it seems modern economists are all working from the same set of unexamined assumptions about the meaning of human existence that consumption and growth through private profit lead implacably toward a better tomorrow it s fairly widely accepted that there was and is more leisure time in hunter gatherer societies perhaps this was why marx
