The New Unionism: The Case for Workers' Control
Title
The New Unionism: The Case for Workers' Control
Description
At a time of severe crisis in the Labour Movement, there has never been a greater need for rethinking the aims and methods of socialism. Ken Coates and Tony Topham, who have been tireless in their arguments within the Labour Movement about its future, here set out proposals for a new unionism to replace the present bureaucratic structures.
In presenting the case for full self- management as the only way of attaining a rational and humane society, the authors deal with both the opportunities and dangers, with genuine workers’ control and with illusory schemes of participation.
