Some syndicalists believe in establishing caucuses within existing trade unions to push for changing the unions' structures to make them more democratic and member-led, like what the pamphlet linked to this post here proposes. How effective is this strategy compared to establishing new rank-and-file syndicalist unions?

Brief story. Early I was on an Italian bookshop (Feltrinelli) online shop browsing around looking what stuff they have related to Proudhon. At one point I came across a book called DA PROUDHON A LENIN (From Proudhon to Lenin) by Georges Sorel.

I'm interested so I click on the title and see if there was some description. Since the book it's categorized as vintage item, there's nothing much: number of pages (222), year of publication (1949) and the publisher (L'Arco). It's not the first time this happens with vintage books, so usually what I do is that I just Google the book to see if someone else has a description of what's inside of the thing. I do the same with this book translating the title in English. Nothing. All results lead me to other sites selling me the same book or other editions of it. I try Wikipedia (both Italian and english) and I use the search option and write "Proudhon" first and "Lenin" later. Nothing. No signs of the book

So my question is, is there someone here that knows what this book is about? It may just probably be some sort of collection of Sorel thoughts that he wrote. Thanks for those that read till here and for those that will reply

Edit: forgot to tell that apparently this thing is only in italian...compagnə dove siete?

In the US, unions like the United Auto Workers are planning a general strike in 2028. For the Americans here, what are your thoughts on it? And are any of you currently organising and getting involved?

How would people getting degrees help or hinder the syndicalist movement? On one hand, I see the fallacious idea of meritocracy as something that could hold us back (since class mobility is quite heavily restricted), and on the other, I see potential in people ‘earning’ more money to survive more comfortably/at all (especially in areas with high cost of living). How can this be reconciled, if possible?

Hello, everyone. I am the new moderator of r/Syndicalism101. I have re-opened this subreddit so that everyone is open to ask questions about syndicalism and current affairs. I know the subreddit has been dormant for a long time, but hopefully we'll see a lot more engagement in the near future. Would love to hear from you all. If you have any concerns, don't be afraid to message me.

Hello, I'm new to this, also don't know if this is Syndicalist related, but may I ask what are your opinions, thoughts, and criticisms about the Communist Manifesto?

I’m curious to know

Edit: specifically Anarcho-Syndicalism

Thk for anyone who helps

I'm researching all kinds of socialism to see which one I agree with the best and I've been considering syndicalism but I'm wondering what different variations each have for tactics of anti capitalism and what their ultimate goals are.

Thanks and sorry if I sound like I have no idea what I'm talking about (because I really don't)

Hi friends! I have been reading up on all sections of syndicalism recently and am rly loving and find myself saying "why doesn't this exist" a lot, anyway I have been reading on modern syndicalism and have been finding anarcho syndicalism mentioned a lot. I am having some trouble understanding what it is and I think I have it right I just need some confirmation. Anarcho syndicalism is when anarchists use syndicalist unions as a tactic to try and empower the average worker to try and shift them towards anarchy. Is that a ok understanding or am I missing something?

Earlier today I made a map of countries with active syndicalist orgs.

Now, various sites indicate the presence of groups in Colombia, Brazil, Chile and Argentina that espouse an anarcho-syndicalist position. But I can't find ANY links to the groups in Chile (either from the IWA wikipedia or anywhere else) and I'm also wondering where else in LatinAm may have some since I found some indications of an anarcho-syndicalist group in Mexico.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, how would the finance sector work in a syndicalist society? eg. investment into industry or personal banking

Could credit unions be a viable alternative to the stock market?

Thanks

Syndicalism 101 is a place where you can ask questions about both the theory and history of the Syndicalism movement. While small we are working to build a community of well-informed syndicalists who are capable of answering the questions of those who have an interest in this movement. Please keep debate out of here but overall feel free to ask any question no matter how advanced or basic and our mods/users will do our best to answer your questions. Lastly, before this is asked - Syndicalism is a fundamentally anti-capitalist ideology and fuck off fascists.
