Summary
"Presents 5 case studies of [Venezuelan] factories producing aluminum, textiles, ketchup, cocoa and paper. Each of these factories has been transformed into cooperative partnerships between the worker and the state. Internally, the companies' decision-making structures are characterized by a lack of hierarchy. Teams of managers are elected by the workers, and the work is organized from the bottom-up (rather than the top-down) by management" -- Container.
