Description
By Ken Coates
“In this sense, the movement for workers’ control of industry is
profoundly revolutionary, even while it pursues the most limited
reforms. At the same time, if any socialist movement represents the
continuation, development and realisation of the basic liberal criteria
of democracy, it is this one, because it is impossible to agitate for
the growth of democratic forms complex enough to govern the
enormous scope of modern industry without comprehending every
significant lesson which has been learnt in the parallel, but simpler,
struggle to impose accountability upon the governors of political
institutions.”
