This volume presents a comprehensive, critical account of the workers ‘ occupy movement that emerged during Argentina ‘s economic crisis. In Workers ‘ Self-Management in Argentina, Marcelo Vieta homes in on the emergence and consolidation of Argentina ‘s empresas recuperadas por sus trabajadores (ERTs, worker-recuperated enterprises), a workers ‘ occupy movement that surged at the turn-of-the-millennium in the thick of the country ‘s neo-liberal crisis. Since then, around 400 companies have been taken over and converted to cooperatives by almost 16,000 workers. Grounded in class-struggle Marxism and a critical sociology of work, the book situates the ERT movement in Argentina ‘s long tradition of working-class activism and the broader history of workers ‘ responses to capitalist crisis. Beginning with the voices of the movement ‘s protagonists, Vieta ultimately develops a compelling social theory of autogestión — a politically prefigurative and ethically infused notion of workers ‘ self-management that unleashes radical social change for work organisations, surrounding communities, and beyond.
