In the 1960s, Gorz was a theorist of workers' self-management. Later, he was also concerned with political ecology. His central theme was work: liberation from work, just distribution of work, alienated work, etc. He was also one of the advocates of a Guaranteed basic income.
Gorz committed suicide with his wife Dorine in his home in Vosnon (Aube) and was found dead on the 24th of September 2007. Dorine, 83, was suffering of a long illness. In 2006, Gorz had published "Lettre à D. Histoire d'un amour". There, he wrote:
«Tu viens juste d'avoir quatre-vingt-deux ans (...). Tu es toujours belle, gracieuse et désirable. Cela fait cinquante-huit ans que nous vivons ensemble et je t'aime plus que jamais. Récemment, je suis retombé amoureux de toi une nouvelle fois et je porte de nouveau en moi un vide débordant que ne comble que ton corps serré contre le mien.»
