Wolff shows why and how to make democratic workplaces real. He speaks to those who realize that capitalism economics and politics as usual have become intolerable and who seek a concrete action program.
Reviews with the most likes.
Big Dick Wolfe here with another banger. People say they like Democracy. But if you like Democracy so much, why not bring it into the workplace? You want more individual freedom? Why not overthrow the small business tyrants and corporate oligarchs to give you more freedom where you spend most of your waking life, your job? I love Democracy. I want more Democracy. This book explains how to make that happen.
Highly Recommended
A lot of really interesting ideas here which other have noted, and a really interesting proposal in his idea for WSDE. Still, I think I want to read the book that ends up citing this booklet in it's chapter on WSDE's as one mode of anti-capitalist labor arrangement.
I also want to add that some have noted that the references to the Occupy movement feel dated, but I feel like they really helped root this document in it's historical place, namely pre-Trump. And to that end, some of his explanations of conservative neo-liberal exploitation seem down right prophetic, but probably inevitable to those who, unlike 16 year old me, were actually paying attention at the time.
