Self-Management and Factory Occupation

Crises and pandemics bring with them a wide range of challenges. Employees are often the first to be affected.

What experiences of struggle and organization have proven effective in such crisis situations? The takeover of factories and their self-management are revolutionary examples that challenge the existing world of work.
