“What is a labour victory? I maintain that it is a twofold thing. Workers must gain economic advantage, but they must also gain revolutionary spirit, in order to achieve a complete victory. For workers to gain a few cents more a day, a few minutes less a day, and go back to work with the same psychology, the same attitude toward society is to achieve a temporary gain and not a lasting victory.” InspirationalSpiritOrderAttitudePsychologySocietyEconomicMinutesAchieveRevolutionVictoryGainsAdvantageLaborWorkersFeministRevolutionaryLabourLastingTemporaryCentsBack To WorkOrganized Labor Author:Elizabeth Gurley Flynn

“Whenever possible, I like to have the supreme head of a company show me over the works. It is extremely illuminating to note the attitude of workers towards their boss, and equally interesting to note the attitude towards the workers.

“Worker-owned co-ops, on their own, floating in the market, tend to replicate the behavior of worker-owned capitalists in some circumstances. They sometimes develop positive participatory schemes, sometimes not. We know from the studies of worker-owned plywood companies in the US, they can tend to develop conservative attitudes, not socialist attitudes. So even though I'm an advocate of further democratization of the workplace, we also need to be building larger structures.” KnowsNeedsSometimesAttitudeCompanyStudyBuildingCircumstancesBehaviorStructureWorkersConservativeCapitalistSchemesSocialistWorkplaceFloatingReplicateDemocratization Author:Gar Alperovitz
