The New Industrial Commons: Worker‐Owners and Factory Space
Strikes are no longer the only way for workers to put their case. Writer, curator, consultant and educator Nina Rappaport charts the continuing rise of worker empowerment, whether through ‘expropriation’, workers’ collectives or similar employee‐owned businesses, giving varied examples of where such approaches have occurred around the world. The catalyst for these moves has often been where the prevailing capitalist model has left spaces vacant and derelict, due to its relentless search for efficiency and economies of scale.
