This post was partly inspired by Luko's comment on Louis's recommendation of a book to be ordered from Amazon, but I didn't want to misdirect the original thread. So anyways... We all know the working conditions at Amazon are a horror show. Same at Foxconn (the huge PC/iPhone/etc. manufacturer in China). Same at Walmart. Of course the reason each can exploit so barbarically so many so terribly with so little (as of yet) resistance is their huge size and reach - a reach however which also represents their objective socialization. The question I keep coming back to and will one day write more on is how the technical and organizational sides of that objective socialization make them ripe for the picking - i.e. how after the Revolution each will facilitate democratic self-management by workers in and across such huge institutions. _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
