Description: Democracy at Work : A Cure for Capitalism, Paperback by Wolff, Richard, ISBN 1608462471, ISBN-13 9781608462476, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US It has long been known, says Wolff (emeritus, economics, U. of Massachusetts-Amherst), that production works best when performed by a community that collectively and democratically designs and carries out shared labor. Here he describes and promotes workers' self-directed enterprises as a new manifestation of that venerable idea. He begins by setting out the problem with capitalism and why solutions that worked in the past--state capitalism, strong unions--are not available now. Then he explains what workers' self-directed enterprises are, how they work internally, property ownership, markets and the efficiency myth, economic and political democracy, their place in modern societies, and a program and personnel for increasing them.
