Abstract: | Discussion of worker rights often focuses on the right to associate freely and bargain collectively. Such rights may not be
achievable in globalized labor markets when workers do not appropriate the value they add. Relationships in which workers
either participate in the management of the enterprise or directly appropriate their own surplus are more common than is generally
understood. Recent work in economic philosophy provides an inalienable right for workers to collectively appropriate the fruits
of their labor. Given the general failure of existing corporate governance systems, the case for worker appropriation as both
responsibility and right is both practical and strong. |
