Paperback. Condition: New. Trade paperback binding. Brand New; satisfaction guaranteed. Bureaucratic labor unions are under assault. Most unions have surrendered the achievements of the mid-twentieth century, when the working class was a militant force for change throughout the world. Now trade unions seem incapable of defending, let alone advancing, workers? interests.As unions implode and weaken, workers are independently forming their own unions, drawing on the tradition of syndicalism and autonomism?a resurgence of self-directed action that augurs a new period of class struggle throughout the world. In Africa, Asia, the Americas, and Europe, workers are rejecting leaders and forming authentic class-struggle unions rooted in sabotage, direct action, and striking to achieve concrete gains.This is the first book to compile workers? struggles on a global basis, examining the formation and expansion of radical unions in the Global South and Global North. The tangible evidence marshaled in this book serves as a handbook for understanding the formidable obstacles and concrete opportunities for workers challenging neoliberal capitalism, even as the unions of the old decline and disappear.Contributors include Au Loong-Yu, Bai Ruixue, Arup K. Sen, Shawn Hattingh, Piotr Bizyukov and Irina Olimpieva, Genese M. Sodikoff, Aviva Chomsky, Dario Bursztyn, Gabriel Kuhn, Erik Forman, Steven Manicastri, Arup Kumar Sen, and Jack Kirkpatrick.Praise:?As the U.S. labor movement conducts its latest, frantic search for ?new ideas,? there is no better source of radical thinking on improved modes of union functioning than the diverse contributors to this timely collection. New Forms of Worker Organization vividly describes what workers in Africa, Asia, South America, and Europe have done to make their unions more effective. Let?s hope that these compelling case studies of rank-and-file struggle and bottom up change lead to more of the same where it?s needed the most, among those of us ?born in the USA!?? ?Steve Early, former organizer for the Communications Workers of America and author of Save Our Unions: Dispatches from a Movement in DistressThis book is a crucial analytical and tactical handbook for workers protesting against management. In most cases, protests, strikes, and insurgencies are only measured through government data. New Forms of Worker Organization provides independent information on workers? protest, their reasons, and the nature in which they are realized?essential for understanding the true shape of the workers movements in countries throughout the world. This research should be used by workers and labor unions as a tool to reach their objectives and to protect and advance workers? rights.? ?Vadim Borisov, representative IndustriALL Global Union, CIS Region, sociologist, and author of over 100 publications on workers? movements in Russia, including Workers and the Transition to Capitalism in Russia (Verso)?Working people everywhere are feeling the pressure in a world where corporations increasingly dominate our economic, political, and social lives. In country after country, traditional unionism, advocacy, and policy reform have been proven unfit for the task of restoring the dignity and financial security of working families. The critical stories of cutting-edge organizing found in New Forms of Worker Organization demonstrate that workers themselves hold the key to creating a world where work is honored and freedom of association is absolute.? ?Daniel Gross, executive director, Brandworkers, and cofounder, IWW Starbucks Workers Union?This exciting collection provides substantial evidence that collective action by workers themselves is indispensable to advancing a strong labor movement. The book?s global scope demonstrates that workers in the U.S. and beyond can learn much from the tactics, strategies, and historical struggles in other countries.? ?Kim Scipes, author of AFL-CIO?s Secret War against Developing Country Workers: Solidarity or Sabotage??Convent.…
