Description

Confronted by challenges from conservative governments and an array of new economic and ideological forces, the once strong labor movement project of social emancipation is today plagued by serious doubt and confusion. This book discusses how the labor and social movements can best overcomethese challenges, examining the Social Democratic heritage; the concept of associative democracy; the "democratization" of capital, industry, technology, and social programs; and the future of trade unions, the public sector, and social movements.
