People’s love problems are social, not individual, in origin. That’s the final argument of Moira Weigel’s Labor of Love: The Invention of Dating (2016).
We’ve always searched for love, but what’s the social history behind it? Weigel dives deep into a (U.S.-based) look at dating, taking readers on a richly researched journey from the early 1900s through present day.
Her scope is broad, but in this review I concentrate on the technological connection with dating, considering Human IT’s focus and my own research on dating apps.
