This book presents a critique of the structure and principles of trade unions, emphasising the need for a more democratic and participatory approach to labour organisation. The author argues that the existing system, with its reliance on elected officials, has led to a disconnect between the rank-and-file members and the leadership, resulting in a loss of power and influence for the workers. The book proposes a reorganisation of trade unions around workshop committees, which would give workers more direct control over decision-making and foster a greater sense of solidarity and class consciousness. The author contends that such a transformation is necessary to revitalise the labour movement and effectively address the challenges faced by workers in the modern industrial landscape.
