Rumours of the death of the global labour movement have been
greatly exaggerated. Rising from the ashes of the old trade union
movement, workers' struggle is being reborn from below. By engaging
in what Karl Marx called a workers' inquiry, workers and militant
co-researchers are studying their working conditions, the technical
composition of capital, and how to recompose their own power in
order to devise new tactics, strategies, organisational forms and
objectives. These workers' inquiries, from call centre workers to
teachers, and adjunct professors, are re-energising unions,
bypassing unions altogether or innovating new forms of workers'
organisations. In one of the first major studies to critically
assess this new cycle of global working class struggle, Robert
Ovetz collects together case studies from over a dozen
contributors, looking at workers' movements in China, Mexico, the
US, South Africa, Turkey, Argentina, Italy, India and the UK. The
book reveals how these new forms of struggle are no longer limited
to single sectors of the economy or contained by state borders, but
are circulating internationally and disrupting the global
capitalist system as they do.
