Labor, Capitalism, and Class Power /

: What role can and should the working class play under 21st century global capitalism? The scholars contained in this work approach questions regarding the place of labor in a variety of forms under neoliberal capitalism. These chapters examine labor as political and social movements, both in and out of power, in the UK and Greece (amongst others), as well as the ramifications of global capitalism for workers themselves places as disparate as Haiti and the United States. While critiquing what has failed, each offers a vision for what working class solidarity could accomplish, and more importantly how to get there. Contributors are: Ronald W. Cox, Ransford F. Edwards Jr., Jamie A. Gough, Martin Hart-Landsberg, William I. Robinson, Xuan Santos, and Kim Scipes.
