Han's recent work, "Vita Contemplativa," proposes a new perspective on inactivity, advocating for a genuine appreciation of rest that is free from the capitalist drive for productivity.

Often, our weekends and vacations serve merely as preparatory phases for increased productivity during the workweek.
