Foundations of Self-Managed Socialism: The Contribution of István Mészáros

Chapter 6 in Cooperatives and Socialism, 2013, pp 143-163 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Workers began to feel the need for self-management the first day that they were placed in a factory, against their will. In the nineteenth century, cooperativism and mutual support societies gained force as a form of resistance against unemployment, principally during the industrial revolution in England. (I should note that one of the main reasons mutual support societies were created was so that workers could have decent burials.)
